ABSTRACT:
A steel laminate gasket of the invention is installed in an internal combustion engine. The gasket comprises a first plate and a second plate situated above the first plate. The first plate includes a base portion extending throughout the entire area of the gasket, a curved portion to define a first hole, and a flange situated above the base portion. A bead is formed on the flange to extend toward the base portion. When the gasket is tightened, the flange extends freely outwardly, so that the first bead can deform at a relatively low pressure. Also, the flange can slide easily relative to the cylinder head or cylinder block.
