Multi Layer Steel Gaskets

A Multi-Layer Steel gasket is constructed with a number of steel layers and each layer has a specific purpose. The outer layer which is usually rubber coated and provides the means for sealing around oil, coolant and as an added seal for the combustion area. The stopper layer located beneath the outer layer applies a load around the bore and seals the combustion area. The spacer layer within the gasket is inactive and provides the gasket with the finished thickness.
