Built To Seal When Boost And Power Come Alive

If you’re wrenching on a 1994-1998 5.9L 12-valve Cummins, you already know how much abuse these engines can take. But when you crank up the boost or start adding fuel, a weak head gasket won’t cut it. That’s where the Cometic C5955-072 MLX Cylinder Head Gasket steps in. This gasket is designed to hold strong under pressure, with a beefy .072-inch thickness and a 4.100-inch bore that’s perfect for performance-driven builds. It’s built using advanced materials like armor-clad and graphite, so you can trust it to seal tight even on surfaces that aren’t perfectly machined. Whether you're towing hard, racing at the track, or just putting down serious power on the street, this gasket is ready to handle it all. Cometic built it with the kind of resilience you’d expect from a brand trusted in both diesel and motorsports circles. If you're looking to protect your investment and avoid head gasket failures down the road, this one delivers.

Designed To Seal In The Harshest Engine Conditions

The Cometic C5955-072 MLX Cylinder Head Gasket is precision-engineered to meet the extreme demands of the 5.9L 12V Cummins platform. With a five-layer stainless steel construction and reinforced with armor-clad and graphite sealing surfaces, this gasket is built to provide consistent and even clamping force across the entire head. The .072-inch compressed thickness helps accommodate slight surface imperfections and warped deck conditions, making it ideal for older or heavily-used blocks. The 4.100-inch bore shape is round and optimized for perfect fitment in high-compression applications. It also features a galvanized steel core for enhanced rigidity and strength under load. These materials work together to reduce bore distortion, improve sealing under extreme combustion pressures, and extend gasket lifespan. Whether you're running stock or pushing serious power, this gasket is designed to maintain a strong and reliable seal without the need for post-installation re-torque.
