Cometic C8267-018 MLS Head Gasket Bore Honda - 72mm 0.018 CBR900RR

The Cometic C8267-018 is a high-performance Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gasket engineered specifically for 1993-1999 Honda CBR900RR FireBlade motorcycles with a 72mm bore. This precision gasket features a compressed thickness of 0.018 inches, making it ideal for higher compression applications compared to the standard 0.040" gasket.

Multi-Layer Steel Construction:

• Multiple embossed layers of stainless steel for superior strength and durability
• Outer layers coated with Viton rubber material for exceptional sealing
• Advanced Multi-Polymer (AMP) coating on select layers
• Load Control Embossments (LCE) provide even torque distribution across the sealing surface
• Non-intrusive rivets secure the layers together

Performance Benefits:

• Reduces bore distortion for improved piston ring seal
• Enhanced rebound characteristics and corrosion resistance
• Viton coating heat resistant to 482°F (250°C)
• Withstands the shearing forces in high-performance applications
• No sealants or re-torque required when properly installed on prepared surfaces

The thinner 0.018" gasket increases compression ratio compared to stock, making it an excellent choice for performance builds seeking additional power. Compatible with Honda CBR900RR FireBlade (1993-1999) and CB919 Hornet (2002-2006) models with 72mm bore configuration.
