Supertech Honda B16A/B18C 85mm Dia 0.85mm (.033in) Thick MLS Head Gasket

This is a Supertech Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket specifically made for Honda B16A and B18C engines. It has a bore diameter of 85mm and a thickness of 0.85mm, which is about 0.033 inches. This gasket is crucial for sealing the combustion chamber and preventing coolant and oil leaks between the cylinder head and the engine block.

MLS head gaskets are well-built with multiple layers of stainless steel, often with a special coating on the sealing surfaces. This construction helps them handle higher cylinder pressures and temperatures compared to older composite gaskets, making them a solid choice for rebuilt engines or those seeing more demanding use. The 85mm bore size is specific to certain engine configurations, so make sure it matches your build. The 0.85mm thickness is a common choice for stock or slightly modified engines, offering a good balance of sealing and maintaining the original compression ratio.
