Cometic .043" 4-Cycle Head Gasket Fits 80-82 Honda CB900F 985cc 68mm

• Size: .043"

The Cometic 4-Cycle Head Gasket is a high-performance gasket engineered for durability, precision, and superior sealing performance. Constructed using Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) technology, it features multiple layers of stainless steel for enhanced strength, corrosion resistance, and the ability to rebound under pressure. The outer layers are embossed and coated on both sides with heat-resistant Viton (a fluorocarbon rubber material) to ensure a reliable seal in demanding environments, withstanding temperatures up to 250°C (482°F). The gasket's design incorporates Load Control Embossments (LCE) to promote even torque distribution across the sealing surface, reducing bore distortion and improving piston ring sealing for optimal power output. The center layer, or shim, is made of uncoated stainless steel and can be adjusted to accommodate various thickness requirements. This gasket is ideal for applications involving aluminum heads to aluminum blocks or aluminum heads to cast iron blocks, effectively managing the shearing forces between different materials. Cometic gaskets are known for their high-quality construction, offering reliable performance in challenging conditions. They are suitable for both professional and enthusiast use, providing a heavy-duty seal that is resistant to fuels, coolants, and oils.
