Key Features:
Cometic’s MLS Cylinder Head Gasket incorporates advanced materials and design elements to maximize engine performance and longevity:
- Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) construction for enhanced strength and durability
- Embossed outer layers coated with Viton rubber for superior heat and chemical resistance
- Compressed operating thickness of 0.098" for precise sealing
- Designed to handle shearing forces between aluminum heads and cast iron or aluminum blocks
- Corrosion-resistant stainless steel layers that rebound to maintain a tight seal
- Center shim layer of uncoated stainless steel customizable for thickness requirements
- Heat resistance up to 250°C (482°F) thanks to Viton coating
- No sealants required, simplifying installation and reducing potential failure points
- Compatible with Chrysler 6.1L Gen-3 Hemi engines with a 4.100" bore
Construction & Design:
The gasket’s multi-layer steel design features several embossed stainless steel layers that work together to provide a resilient and reliable seal. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a high-performance fluoroelastomer rubber known for its exceptional resistance to heat, oil, and chemicals. This coating ensures the gasket maintains sealing integrity even in harsh engine environments.
The center shim layer is made from uncoated stainless steel, allowing for precise thickness adjustments to meet specific engine requirements. This layered construction not only enhances durability but also allows the gasket to absorb and compensate for the differential expansion rates between aluminum cylinder heads and cast iron or aluminum engine blocks, preventing leaks and gasket failure.
