To provide a metal gasket that can be manufactured at an inexpensive cost and provides sufficient sealing performance around a combustion chamber while preventing a bore bead from fully bending. A metal gasket 1 is constructed from one or more gasket component sheets 10 with an opening 12 formed at a position corresponding to a combustion chamber 6 of an engine, and at least one gasket component sheet 10 has a bore bead 16 formed so as to surround the opening 12. In this metal gasket, a shim sheet 11 for controlling the full bending of the bore bead 16 is fixed to the gasket component sheet 10 in an area between the outer peripheral edge of the bore bead 16 and the inner periphery 7 a of a water jacket 7 formed on a cylinder block 2 of the engine.
