Ajusa Cylinder Head Gasket Multi-Layer Steel

The Ajusa Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) cylinder head gasket is an engine sealing component. It seals the joint between the cylinder head and the engine block. Ajusa is a Spanish manufacturer of gaskets and sealing products for the aftermarket. The gasket is also called a head gasket or MLS head gasket. It is used in engine rebuilds and in repairs for blown or leaking head gaskets.

Key Features:

• Multi-layer steel construction with several stacked metal layers for strong sealing under high combustion pressure
• Seals combustion gases, engine oil and coolant between the block and cylinder head
• Resists the heat cycling and pressure found in modern engines
• Stays stable under clamping load, which helps keep a consistent seal over time
• Made to match the original gasket's shape, bolt holes and fluid passages so it fits without modification

Before installing, make sure the block and cylinder head surfaces are clean, flat and free of old gasket material. Follow the engine manufacturer's torque sequence and specifications. Replacing the head bolts is commonly recommended with a head gasket job. Each part number in this product line is made for a specific engine application.
