ABSTRACT:
A gasket for sealing the joint between the cylinder block and the cylinder head of a dry liner internal combustion engine comprises two outer metal plates (1) and a central composite metal plate (2) disposed between the two outer plates. The gasket is particularly characterized in that between cylinder bore openings in the gasket at least one shim (3,4) is secured between one side of the central composite metal plate and the adjacent outer metal plate, in order to prevent loss of load on the gasket in those areas and resultant gas leakage. Similarly at least one shim (5) may be located in like manner between the central plate and an outer plate at corners of the gasket.
