The Cometic MLS (Multi-Layer Steel) Head Gasket for BMW S50B30 and S52B32 engines is a high-performance sealing component designed to withstand the demands of high-output engines. Constructed from multiple embossed layers of stainless steel, the gasket features outer layers coated with Viton rubber for enhanced durability and sealing reliability. With a compressed thickness of 0.066 inches, this gasket provides a precise seal that prevents leaks and maintains compression under extreme conditions. Its multi-layer steel design ensures excellent resistance to shearing forces generated between aluminum heads and cast iron or aluminum blocks, making it suitable for demanding applications. The gasket eliminates the need for sealants, simplifying installation while delivering maximum sealing performance.
This gasket is specifically engineered for US-spec BMW models equipped with the S50B30 or S52B32 engines from 1992 to 1999. It is a direct replacement for OEM head gaskets, ensuring compatibility with the original engine configuration. Ideal for high-performance street and track use, it offers a reliable seal in high compression and boosted setups. The gasket is suitable for engines with aluminum heads and cast iron or aluminum blocks, providing a durable solution for rebuilds, upgrades, or repairs. Installation involves standard head gasket replacement procedures, and the kit includes the gasket itself, designed to meet or exceed OEM specifications for fitment and performance.
