Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to a cylinder head gasket with two outer cover layers which are arranged on opposite sides of a central metal plate with a perforated core between each cover layer and the plate. The thickness of the metal plate can be varied for adjusting the overall thickness of the gasket. The core is connected to the plate by means of a thermosetting adhesive and it has lugs which extend into one cover layer in order to clamp together the core and the cover layer. The use of a perforated core prevents blistering in the cover layers during the manufacture of the gasket. The use of two perforated metal cores which are separated by a plate of adjustable thickness results in advantages during manufacture, makes possible very small thicknesses at the cover layers, and increases the strength.
