A composite gasket includes a central core located between non-metallic outer facing layers. Each non-metallic outer facing layer has an outer core adjacent the central core. The outer cores can be either perforated or non-perforated. A bead is provided on the central core to produce a resilient biasing force that urges the outer facing layers into contact with respective mating surfaces to improve gasket sealing. The central core optionally has an elastomeric coating to improve sealing between the central core and the outer cores to prevent leakage between gasket layers.
