The Cometic Volkswagen 1.8/2.0L 16v TFSI EA888 .098in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket is a high-performance sealing component designed for modern high-output engines. Constructed with multiple embossed layers of stainless steel, the gasket features outer layers coated with Viton rubber, providing excellent heat resistance and sealing durability. With a compressed operating thickness of 0.036 inches, it offers maximum sealing performance without the need for sealants. Its multi-layer steel (MLS) design ensures strength, flexibility, and corrosion resistance, making it suitable for demanding engine environments. The gasket's construction allows it to withstand shearing forces between different materials, ensuring a reliable seal under high pressure and temperature conditions.

This gasket is compatible with Volkswagen engines featuring a 1.8 or 2.0-liter 16-valve TFSI EA888 engine with an 83mm bore. It is suitable for use with aluminum heads on aluminum or cast iron blocks, providing a direct replacement for OEM components. Designed for high-performance applications, it is ideal for street, track, or daily driving where maximum sealing integrity is required. Installation involves replacing the existing head gasket with this MLS component, ensuring a secure and durable seal. The gasket is a precise fit for engines with the specified bore size and is engineered to meet the demands of high-output, modern turbocharged engines.
