Cometic VW/Audi 05+ BWA/BPY 2.0L 16V 83.5mm .050 inch MLS Head Gasket

If you're rebuilding the top end of your Volkswagen or Audi 2.0L TFSI EA113 engine, a solid head gasket is crucial for sealing combustion pressures. This Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) gasket from Cometic is built to handle the demands of high-output engines, offering a reliable seal without needing extra sealants. It's designed to work well whether you're mating aluminum heads to an aluminum block or to cast iron.

This gasket is constructed from multiple layers of stainless steel for increased strength and resistance to corrosion. The outer layers are embossed and coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle harsh sealing environments and varying surface finishes. The center layer is stainless steel and can be varied in thickness; in this case, it's set to achieve a compressed operating thickness of 0.050 inches, with a bore size of 83.5mm, making it a direct fit for many VW and Audi models from 2005 onwards, including vehicles like the Audi A3, Volkswagen GTI, and Jetta.
