Cometic Volkswagen 2.0L 16v TFSI EA888 .066in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket - 82.5mm Bore

This product is a Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) cylinder head gasket designed for Volkswagen 2.0L 16v TFSI EA888 engines. It features an 82.5mm bore and a compressed thickness of 0.036 inches. This gasket is built to handle the demands of higher output engines and is suitable for applications using aluminum heads with either aluminum or cast iron blocks, as it can manage the shearing forces between different metals.

The gasket is constructed from multiple layers of stainless steel for increased strength and resistance to corrosion. The outer layers are coated on both sides with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can withstand temperatures up to 482 degrees Fahrenheit, ensuring a reliable seal in harsh conditions. The center layer is uncoated stainless steel, allowing for variations in thickness to meet specific requirements. Because it's an MLS gasket, it does not require additional sealants.

This gasket fits a range of vehicles, including models like the Audi A3, Audi A4, Volkswagen GTI, and Volkswagen Passat. It's a well-built component designed for a direct fit on compatible engines.
