What is the main advantage of the Viton coating on this gasket?

The Viton rubber coating on the outer layers is designed to meet the demands of harsh sealing environments and high temperatures. It is heat resistant up to 482°F (250°C), ensuring a reliable seal under demanding conditions.

What does Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) mean for this head gasket?

MLS construction uses multiple layers of stainless steel. This design provides increased strength and resilience compared to single-layer gaskets, helping it rebound and resist corrosion effectively.

Does this gasket come with any installation hardware?

This product is for the cylinder head gasket only. It does not include head bolts or other installation hardware, which should be sourced separately if needed.

About this part

Product Details

If you're rebuilding the top end of your Volkswagen 1.8L or 2.0L EA827 engine, a solid cylinder head gasket is crucial for sealing the combustion chamber and coolant passages. This Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) gasket from Cometic Gasket is built to handle the pressures and temperatures involved in keeping your engine running smoothly.

This gasket is constructed from three to five layers of stainless steel, which offers increased strength and resists corrosion. The outer layers are embossed and coated with a Viton rubber material. Viton is known for its heat resistance, handling temperatures up to 482°F (250°C), making it suitable for demanding sealing environments and various surface finishes. The 85mm bore and .098 inch thickness are specific to certain EA827 engine applications.

This Cometic gasket fits a range of vehicles, including many Volkswagen models like the Golf, Jetta, and Cabriolet from the 1980s and early 90s, as well as some Audi and Toyota applications from the same era. Always confirm fitment for your specific vehicle.
