Construction & Design:
The Cometic MLS Cylinder Head Gasket is constructed from multiple embossed layers of stainless steel, providing a robust and resilient sealing surface. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a high-performance fluorocarbon elastomer known for its excellent heat and chemical resistance, ensuring the gasket maintains its integrity under extreme operating conditions. This design allows the gasket to rebound and resist corrosion over time, extending engine life and reliability.
The center shim layer is uncoated stainless steel, which can be customized to meet specific thickness requirements, ensuring a perfect seal between the cylinder head and block. This multi-layer approach effectively manages the differential expansion between aluminum heads and cast iron or aluminum blocks, preventing leaks caused by thermal cycling and mechanical stress.
