The Cometic Gasket Volkswagen 1.8/2.0L 16V TFSI EA888 .060-inch MLS Cylinder Head Gasket is engineered for high-performance engine sealing. Made from multiple embossed layers of stainless steel, the gasket features outer layers coated with Viton rubber, which are designed to withstand extreme temperatures up to 482°F. The compressed operating thickness is approximately 0.036 inches, providing a reliable seal across various engine conditions. This MLS gasket is suitable for both aluminum heads and blocks, as well as aluminum heads to cast iron blocks, effectively managing the shearing forces between different materials. Its multilayer construction enhances strength, resilience against corrosion, and the ability to rebound under load, ensuring long-lasting performance in demanding environments. The outer embossed layers contribute to superior sealing performance, with Viton coating offering additional resistance to harsh conditions and surface finishes. The center shim layer, composed of uncoated stainless steel, can be customized in thickness to meet specific engine requirements, reducing clamp load and minimizing bore distortion. Designed to distribute load evenly across the sealing surface, this gasket ensures optimal contact and sealing integrity. It is particularly suitable for high-output engines such as the 2012–2015 Volkswagen models, including the Audi A3, A4, TT Quattro, and A5 Quattro, with 84mm bore specifications. This gasket requires no sealants, simplifying installation and maintenance, and delivers maximum sealing performance for performance-oriented applications. The product complies with Prop 65 standards, ensuring safety and quality for automotive use.
