Product Details

The Wiseco W6968 is a Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket designed for Kawasaki 1170–1200cc big-bore engine builds. With a .040-inch compressed thickness and a 76mm bore diameter, this gasket is engineered to deliver a precise, leak-free seal during high-performance engine rebuilds and overbore applications.

Key Features:

  • MLS (Multi-Layer Steel) construction — multiple steel layers provide flexibility and resilience to accommodate engine movement and thermal expansion without compromising the seal
  • .040 inch compressed thickness — engineered for use with Kawasaki 1170–1200cc big-bore applications
  • 76mm bore diameter — matches standard big-bore sleeve specifications for KZ/ZX-series builds
  • High-pressure steel-laminate design — built to withstand extreme shear forces and combustion pressures
  • Internal embossments expand under heat to enhance sealing performance at elevated temperatures and pressures
  • OEM+ quality — exceeds original equipment standards for reliable, long-lasting performance
  • Compatible with high-compression builds, performance upgrades, and engine rebuilds

The Wiseco W6968 is a direct component of Wiseco's powersports gasket line, purpose-built for demanding Kawasaki engine applications. Paired gasket part numbers include base gasket W5380. UPC: 193564118585.

Good so far

So far so good

The item I ordered had the correct name & part number that I want but a completely different description. I confirmed the part was what I wanted via the chat box. If it indeed turns out to be what the part # and photo says it is them I’ll be a very happy camper as it’s a difficult part to find.

The way it was described it come with everything you needed and it took over a week to get the product to find out it did not come with the lower unit so now it's going to take another 5 to 10 days to get the rest of the product it should've come with everything it's not a replacement air conditioner

First time using this business and will continue if all goes well, excited

Customer service was excellent and informative

as presented...would order from them again

Excellent service!
