<p>A metal gasket (A) of the invention is used for an internal combustion engine, especially for an engine with a cylinder liner (CL). The gasket (A) is formed of a first metal plate (A10) having a first hole greater than a hole of the engine, an annular ring (A10A) and a sealing device (A11). The annular ring (A10A) has an inner size substantially corresponding to the hole of the engine, an outer size substantially corresponding to the first hole, and a thickness (t1) greater than that of the first metal plate (A10). The annular ring (A10A) is situated inside the first hole and attached to the first metal plate (A10). The sealing device (A11) provides a surface pressure on the first plate outside the annular ring. Even if there is a gap between the upper end of the cylinder liner and an upper surface of the cylinder block, the annular ring (A10A) can seal around the hole together with the sealing device (A11). <IMAGE></p> |
