Abstract
Provided is a metal gasket for a cylinder head that is capable of improving engaging force between a substrate and a step adjustment plate. A method for manufacturing the metal gasket for a cylinder head includes the steps of: forming a prepared hole 3c in each of a plurality of protruding pieces 3b of the step adjustment plate 3; forming a tubular portion 3d including a plurality of projecting segments 3d1 by inserting a die 4 including a polygonal pyramidal punch 4a into the prepared hole 3c so as to bend up a peripheral portion around the prepared hole 3c while cutting the peripheral portion into segments; forming in the substrate 2 an fastening hole 2h in correspondence with a position of the tubular portion 3d formed in the step adjustment plate 3; and engaging the protruding piece 3b through the substrate 2 by inserting the tubular portion 3d of the step adjustment plate 3 through the corresponding fastening hole 2h formed in the substrate 2, and subsequently folding the plurality of projecting segments 3d1 of the tubular portion 3d over to an outside of the substrate 2 and flattening out the projecting segments 3d1.
