Cometic Gasket cgsC4239-040 Honda/Acura B18A/B .040 in MLS Cylinder Head Gasket

Comprised of multiple embossed layers of stainless steel with the outer layers utilizing a Viton rubber coating. Compressed operating thickness is 0.040". Cometic MLS (Multi-Layer Steel) Head Gaskets provide maximum sealing performance for todays high output engines and require no sealants. MLS gaskets are ideal for both aluminum heads to aluminum blocks and aluminum heads to cast iron blocks. They can withstand the shearing force created by the two materials. MLS gaskets have increased strength because they are comprised of multiple layers of stainless steel; which also creates the ability to rebound and resist corrosion. The outer layers are embossed and coated on both sides with Viton (a flour elastomer rubber based material that is heat resistant to 250 C/ 482 F). Viton is designed to meet the demands of a variety of harsh sealing environments, load conditions, and surface finishes. The center or shim layer is uncoated stainless steel, which can be varied to accommodate multiple thickness requirements. Honda B18A1/B18B1 .040in.

• The embossed outer layers of the gaskets meet the demands of a variety of harsh sealing environments, load conditions, and surface finishes
• The center or shim layer is an uncoated stainless steel layer which can be varied to accommodate multiple thickness requirements
• Requires less clamp load creating less bore distortion
• Conforms load distribution across the sealing area
• Embossed Outer Layers Coated w/Viton

The Cometic Gasket cgsC4239-040 is a .040-inch compressed-thickness MLS cylinder head gasket for Honda B18A1/B18B1 and Acura Integra applications with an 81.5 mm bore. It is constructed from multiple embossed stainless steel layers, with outer layers coated on both sides with Viton for reliable sealing in demanding operating environments. The gasket requires no sealants.

Its multi-layer stainless steel construction is designed to provide increased strength, rebound capability and corrosion resistance. The gasket can be used with aluminum heads and aluminum blocks or with aluminum heads and cast iron blocks, helping accommodate the shearing forces created by dissimilar materials. The embossed outer layers conform load distribution across the sealing area and are designed to work across a variety of load conditions and surface finishes.

Key performance benefits include reduced clamp-load requirements, which can help reduce bore distortion, along with Viton-coated outer layers and an uncoated stainless steel center shim layer. The product data identifies fitment for 1997–2001 Acura Integra applications; verify the specific vehicle, engine and bore requirements before installation.
