Description
COMETIC MLS (Multi-Layer Steel) Head Gaskets provide
maximum sealing performance for today's high output
engines and require no sealants. MLS gaskets are ideal
for both aluminum heads to aluminum blocks and aluminum
heads to cast iron blocks. They can withstand the shearing
force created by the two materials. MLS gaskets have
increased strength because they are comprised of multiple
layers of stainless steel; which also creates the ability to
rebound and resist corrosion. The outer layers are embossed
and coated on both sides with Viton (a flouroelastomer
rubber based material that is heat resistant to 250 C/ 482 F).
Viton is designed to meet the demands of a variety of harsh
sealing environments, load conditions, and surface finishes.
The center or shim layer is uncoated stainless steel, which
can be varied to accommodate multiple thickness requirements.
