ABSTRACT:
An engine gasket is formed as a thin sheet of durable material having front and back faces and formed with an array of throughgoing holes and with surface formations projecting at most to a plane parallel to the front face. According to this invention the gasket is formed with fragile crushable spacer bosses projecting from the front face past the plane so that when a plurality of such gaskets are stacked the bosses will hold them substantially out of contact with each other except at the bosses.
