About Cometic

Cometic Gasket manufactures multi-layer steel head gaskets and complete gasket kits in Concord, Ohio. On a built V-twin running higher compression or a big-bore kit, the MLS head gasket is what keeps the top end sealed — which is why Cometic is the default spec on so many engine builds.

Get a reliable, durable seal for your V-twin engine with this Cometic Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket. Featuring a 4.060" bore diameter and a .040" thickness, it's engineered for performance and longevity.

Why riders pick this

  • Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) construction for extreme durability
  • 4.060" bore diameter for big bore applications
  • 0.040" thickness for optimal compression
  • Resists blow-out under high combustion pressures
  • Comes in a 2-pack for V-twin engine service

When building or servicing a V-twin motor, especially those with larger bores, the head gasket is crucial for containing combustion pressures and preventing leaks. Cometic MLS gaskets are a go-to choice for performance applications due to their proven ability to provide a consistent, long-lasting seal under extreme conditions.

Superior Sealing for Big Bore V-Twins

  • Multi-layer steel (MLS) construction for maximum durability and sealing
  • 4.060" bore diameter for big bore engine configurations
  • 0.040" thickness for optimal compression and clearance
  • Resists blow-out and maintains integrity through heat cycles
  • Sold in a 2-pack, providing gaskets for both cylinders

Essential for Performance Engine Builds

Whether you're doing a routine top-end service or upgrading to a big-bore kit, a high-quality head gasket is non-negotiable. This Cometic MLS gasket offers the robust construction and sealing performance needed for Harley-Davidson and Indian Motorcycle V-twin engines. Always confirm your specific engine's bore diameter before ordering to ensure correct fitment and optimal sealing.

Common questions

What does MLS construction mean?

MLS stands for Multi-Layer Steel. This gasket design uses multiple layers of steel to provide a superior and more durable seal that can withstand high combustion pressures and extreme temperatures.

Why is this gasket sold in a 2-pack?

V-twin engines require two head gaskets, one for each cylinder. The 2-pack provides a complete set for your engine service or rebuild.

Will this fit my specific Harley-Davidson or Indian Motorcycle engine?
