Cometic Volkswagen 2.0L 16V TFSI EA888 .045in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket 84mm Bore w/o Valvelift

This Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is built with multiple embossed layers of stainless steel, featuring an outer layer coated with Viton rubber. This design is intended for high-output engines and is engineered to provide maximum sealing performance without the need for sealants. The Viton coating is heat resistant up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit and handles harsh sealing environments, load conditions, and various surface finishes, making it suitable for both aluminum and cast iron blocks. The center layer is uncoated stainless steel, allowing for variations in thickness to meet specific requirements, with this particular gasket having a compressed operating thickness of 0.036 inches and an 84mm bore.

MLS gaskets offer increased strength due to their layered stainless steel construction, which also helps them rebound and resist corrosion. This makes them a solid option for engines that see a lot of work. This gasket is specifically designed for the Volkswagen 2.0L 16V TFSI EA888 engine without Valvelift, fitting a range of vehicles including the Audi A3, A4, and Volkswagen GTI.
