Cometic C5987-080 MLS Cylinder Head Gasket AMC Jeep 4.0L Inline 6

The Cometic C5987-080 is a high-performance Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) cylinder head gasket engineered specifically for AMC/Jeep 4.0L inline 6-cylinder engines. Featuring a 3.950-inch bore diameter and .080-inch uncompressed thickness, this gasket delivers superior sealing performance for stock and modified applications.

Key Features:

• 5-layer Multi-Layer Steel construction for maximum strength and durability
• Compressed operating thickness of 0.098 inches
• Viton (FKM) rubber coating on outer layers for heat resistance up to 482°F (250°C)
• Embossed stainless steel layers provide micro-sealing against head and block surfaces
• Requires less clamp load, reducing bore distortion
• No sealants or re-torque required
• Ideal for aluminum-to-aluminum or aluminum-to-cast iron applications

Cometic's proprietary MLS technology uses multiple embossed layers of stainless steel with high-temperature coatings that conform to load distribution across the sealing area. The Viton coating resists harsh sealing environments while maintaining exceptional torque retention. This gasket withstands the shearing forces between dissimilar materials and provides increased resistance to corrosion and rebound capability for long-lasting performance.
