A metal gasket is utilized for sealing two metal surfaces clamped together by a pair of bolts. A first metal plate has at least two apertures for receiving the bolts. The bolts have a major thread diameter and a minor thread diameter. At least one of the apertures has a first inner diameter larger than the major diameter with a plurality of retainer tabs extending radially inwardly to define a second inner diameter larger than the minor thread diameter and smaller than the major thread diameter.
