Cometic C5955-072 Cummins 5.9L 6BT MLX Cylinder Head Gasket .072" Thick

The Cometic C5955-072 is a premium Multi-Layer Steel (MLX) cylinder head gasket engineered specifically for Cummins 5.9L 6BT diesel engines. This high-performance gasket features a .072-inch compressed thickness and is designed with a 4.100-inch bore to provide superior sealing under extreme pressures and temperatures.

Key Features:

• Multi-Layer Steel (MLX) construction for maximum durability and heat resistance
• .072-inch (1.83mm) compressed thickness provides optimal compression ratio
• 4.100-inch bore diameter for precise fitment
• Engineered to withstand high cylinder pressures in turbocharged and modified applications
• Advanced coating technology ensures exceptional sealing and blowout resistance
• Embossed stainless steel layers with elastomer coating for superior conformability

Cometic MLX gaskets are a popular choice for performance rebuilds, turbo upgrades, and high-boost diesel applications where factory gaskets may not provide adequate sealing. The multi-layer design allows the gasket to micro-adjust to head and block surface irregularities while maintaining a consistent seal under thermal cycling and extreme combustion pressures.
