This process ensures micro-sealing of engine coolant and oil fluids.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAthena MLS gaskets are tested and analyzed on engine test benches and in endurance tests.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eGas Stopper Technology\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eGas Stopper technology is a key factor in the design of competition MLS cylinder head gaskets. The stainless steel stopper layer incorporates an innovative active folding system that provides a high-pressure seal around the cylinder bore when the cylinder head is tightened. The gas stopper is located around the combustion chamber, allowing for a tighter fit between the cylinder head and the engine block, preventing gas leaks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis also prevents component deformation due to faster temperature equalization.

This process ensures micro-sealing of coolant\/engine oil fluids and meets the demands of various harsh environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe first layer is a high-temperature compound that conforms to surface irregularities of the engine block and cylinder head. (Typical MLS cylinder head gaskets require a 30 Ra surface finish, while Athena's seal surface finishes up to 60 Ra).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe second layer is easily removable and does not stick to contact surfaces when disassembling the engine.\u003cbr\u003e\nCompatible with:\u003cbr\u003e\nRENAULT CLIO I (B\/C57_, 5\/357_)Williams (B\/C57M) 1998 cc 108 kW; RENAULT F7R 700 1998 cc 108 kW; RENAULT F7R 710 1998 cc 108 kW; RENAULT F7R 714 1998 cc 108 kW; RENAULT MEGANE I (BA0\/1_)2.0 16V (BA0H) 1998 cc 108 kW; RENAULT MEGANE I Cabriolet (EA0\/1_)2.0 16V (EA0H) 1998 cc 108 kW; RENAULT MEGANE I Coach (DA0\/1_)2.0 16V (DA0H) 1998 cc 108 kW; RENAULT SPORT SPIDER (EF0_)2.0 1998 cc 108 kW RENAULT SPORT SPIDER (EF0_) 2.0 16V 1998 cc 110 kW\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ATHENA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56965522882900,"sku":"338248R","price":148.87,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1027\/4701\/3460\/files\/pim_2000-2000_514779a9-01de-41f7-8242-503ff79feb86.jpg?v=1788479423","url":"https:\/\/www.thetunerlab.com\/en\/products\/junta-de-culata-athena-mls-para-renault-clio-f7r-megane-sport-spider-13-mm-84-mm-338248r","provider":"Thetunerlab","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
