Multi-Layer Steel Head Gasket, .070" Thickness, 87mm Bore

Its Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) construction, composed of three stainless steel layers, provides superior durability and resistance to extreme cylinder pressures. The outer layers are enhanced with an embossed Viton coating, ensuring an exceptional seal, excellent rebound characteristics, and resistance to corrosion. This design effectively minimizes bore distortion. With a thickness of .070" and an 87mm cylinder bore, this gasket is specifically designed for applications including the BMW S50 3.0L and S52 3.2L engines found in models such as the E36 M3 and Z3 M Coupe/Roadster. A key advantage of Cometic MLS gaskets is their ability to be installed dry, as the integrated sealant forms a reliable bond on dry surfaces, simplifying the installation process. The perforated steel core also aids in drawing heat evenly across the gasket surface. This product is proudly made in the USA. This Cometic MLS head gasket is compatible with BMW S50B30US and S52B32 engines. Specific fitment includes BMW M3 models from 1996-1999 (E36 chassis, all submodels) and BMW Z3 M Coupe/Roadster models from 1998-2000 (E36/7 chassis) equipped with the S50 3.0L or S52 3.2L engines.
