Cometic VW/Audi 1.8L 20V Turbo EA827 85mm .036 inch MLS Head Gasket

This Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket is built with multiple embossed layers of stainless steel, featuring Viton rubber coating on the outer layers. With a compressed operating thickness of 0.036 inches and an 85mm bore, it's specifically designed for the VW/Audi 1.8L 20V Turbo EA827 engine. This gasket is well-suited for high-output engines and can handle the demands of both aluminum-to-aluminum and aluminum-to-cast iron block configurations, resisting the shearing forces that can occur between different metals.

The multi-layer stainless steel construction provides increased strength and the ability to rebound, while also resisting corrosion. The Viton coating on the outer layers is a heat-resistant material capable of withstanding temperatures up to 482°F (250°C), making it suitable for harsh sealing environments and various surface finishes. The uncoated stainless steel center layer can be varied to meet different thickness requirements, ensuring a precise fit for your engine build. These gaskets do not require additional sealants for installation.

This gasket fits a range of vehicles, including models like the Audi A4, Audi TT, Volkswagen Golf, and Volkswagen Jetta. It's a solid option when you need reliable sealing for your turbocharged EA827 engine.
