Abstract

See full text

A gasket assembly is provided including a first gasket layer and a second gasket layer having an outboard region and an inboard edge circumscribing an aperture. The gasket layers present a sealing bead between the inboard edge and the outboard region. A stopper layer disposed between the gasket layers is attached to the outboard region of the first gasket layer at an attachment joint and extends from the attachment joint to the inboard edge. A coating of sealing material is applied between the first gasket layer and the stopper layer. The coating extends from the attachment joint to the inboard edge of the first gasket layer to present a contact region immediately surrounding the aperture where the first gasket layer and the stopper layer are in direct continuous contact with the coating thereby preventing gas leakage and metal to metal contact between the first gasket layer and the stopper layer.
