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.
For shops or riders with multiple Sportster V-twins, this Cometic head and base gasket 25-pack offers a convenient bulk solution. These gaskets are manufactured to OEM replacement specifications, ensuring a precise fit and reliable seal every time. Keep your service bay stocked with essential sealing components for Sportster engine work.

DONT FOLLOW PRINTED INSTRUCTIONS!
DON’T FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS ON THE BOX!!! It says recommended torque is 42 lb/ft. You know what happened at 32lb/ft? One of bolts broke! And I was lucky there was long enough piece sticking out to remove it without drilling out! Check photos.
