Key Features:

Designed with advanced materials and technology, the Cometic MLS Cylinder Head Gasket offers the following benefits:

• Multi-layer steel (MLS) construction for enhanced strength and durability
• Embossed outer layers coated with heat-resistant Viton rubber for superior sealing
• Compressed operating thickness of 0.036" ensures optimal fit and compression

Construction & Design:

This gasket features multiple embossed layers of stainless steel, providing exceptional strength and flexibility. The outer layers are coated on both sides with Viton, a fluorocarbon elastomer known for its excellent heat resistance and chemical durability. This coating ensures a tight seal against harsh operating environments, including high temperatures and varying surface finishes.

The center shim layer is made of uncoated stainless steel, allowing for precise thickness customization to meet specific engine requirements. This multi-layer approach enables the gasket to absorb and resist the shearing forces generated between dissimilar materials such as aluminum heads and cast iron blocks, preventing leaks and gasket failure.
