The Cometic MLX (Multi-Layer Steel) Head Gasket is engineered to provide maximum sealing performance for high-output engines without the need for additional sealants. Constructed from multiple embossed layers of stainless steel, this gasket is designed to withstand the shearing forces created by different cylinder head and block expansion rates, making it an ideal choice for both aluminum-to-aluminum and aluminum-to-cast iron assemblies.

• Optimized Sealing: Multi-layer steel construction provides superior rebound and resistance to corrosion while improving clamp load around the cylinder to prevent bore distortion.
• Advanced Materials: The outer layers are embossed and coated on both sides with Viton, a fluoroelastomer rubber based material heat-resistant up to 250°C (482°F).
• Durable Construction: Features an uncoated stainless steel center shim layer that allows for precise thickness variations to meet specific engine requirements.
