The Cometic MLS Cylinder Head Gasket (C8656) is engineered using multi-layer steel construction to provide stable torque distribution and maintain consistent sealing under high-performance engine conditions.
The MLS design utilizes Load Control Embossments (LCE) to minimize bore distortion and improve piston ring sealing efficiency.

Some configurations also incorporate Single-Layer Steel (SLS) technology, featuring a stainless-steel core with embossed outer surfaces to create a heavy-duty seal between mating surfaces.

The center shim layer is made from uncoated stainless steel and can be adjusted for multiple thickness requirements.
Outer layers are embossed and coated with Viton to withstand high temperatures, varying load conditions, and different surface finishes.
