Product Description

The **Cometic C4606-051** is a premium MLS (Multi-Layer Steel) head gasket specifically engineered for Toyota's third-generation 3S-GE and 3S-GTE 2.0L engines. With an 87 mm bore and a compressed thickness of 0.051 in, this gasket offers a precision seal ideal for both stock and high-performance applications.

Constructed with three layers of stainless steel, the gasket features embossed outer plates coated with heat- and chemical-resistant Viton rubber. This design supports strong clamping loads while minimizing bore distortion, making it dependable under demanding conditions.

Installation is straightforward due to its symmetrical layout, and because it's an MLS gasket, there is no need for additional sealants or re-torquing after installation. This makes it a great choice for builders and tuners working on Toyota Celica or MR2 engines looking for reliable, high-integrity sealing.
