The Cometic MLS Head Gasket for the Honda Civic 1.7L (D17A1, D17A2, D17A6) is a high-performance sealing component designed to withstand demanding engine conditions. Constructed with three layers of stainless steel, this gasket offers enhanced strength, excellent rebound properties, and superior corrosion resistance. The outer layers are embossed and coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material capable of enduring temperatures up to 2500°C (4820°F). This design ensures reliable sealing under high load and harsh environments, making it suitable for both stock and modified engines. The gasket’s multilayer construction provides durability and consistent compression, contributing to optimal engine performance and longevity.

This gasket is specifically engineered for Honda Civic models equipped with 1.7L engines, including the D17A1, D17A2, and D17A6 variants. It features a bore size of 78mm, ensuring precise fitment and sealing integrity. Ideal for engine rebuilds, performance upgrades, or repairs, this MLS gasket serves as a direct replacement for OEM components. Installation involves standard head gasket procedures, and the kit includes the gasket itself. Suitable for street, track, or high-performance applications, this gasket ensures a reliable seal in demanding driving conditions and enhances engine durability.

Overview

The Cometic MLS gasket is comprised of three layers of Stainless Steel. Cometic uses Stainless steel for increased strength, its ability to rebound and corrosion resistance. The outer layers of the gasket are embossed and coated on both sides with a flouroelastomer rubber based material (Viton) designed to meet the demands of a variety of harsh sealing environments, load conditions and surface finishes. The Viton coating is heat resistant to 2500C or 4820F.

The center or shim layer of the gasket is comprised of an uncoated Stainless Steel layer, which can be varied to accommodate multiple thickness requirements. The MLS gasket is ideal for both aluminum heads to cast iron blocks and aluminum heads to aluminum blocks.

The composition of MLS will also withstand the shearing forces created by aluminum heads on cast iron blocks. No re-torque is necessary. By design the MLS gasket promotes an even torque load across the sealing surface allowing for measurable reduced bore distortion.
