Supertech BMW S50 S52 Head Gasket 87mm Bore 2mm Thick Copper Ring for High Boost Applications
The Supertech BMW S50 S52 head gasket engineered specifically for high-boost setups in performance BMW engines. This copper ring head gasket, part number HG-BMW-S50-87-2T, delivers consistent sealing under intense cylinder pressures, making it the reliable pick for enthusiasts building turbocharged or supercharged M3 projects. With its multi-layer steel (MLS) construction reinforced by a durable copper ring, it withstands the demands of elevated boost levels where standard gaskets fall short, ensuring your engine maintains compression and avoids leaks during aggressive driving or track sessions.
Key Specifications
- Bore Diameter: 87mm Precisely matched to S50 and S52 cylinder bores for a flush fit without overhang.
- Thickness: 2mm Allows for controlled quench and maintains optimal combustion chamber volume in modified engines.
- Material: MLS core with high-boost copper ring. The copper provides enhanced thermal conductivity and crush resistance for repeated heat cycles.
- Design Features: Laser-cut edges for exact alignment, fire ring for combustion sealing, and full construction to support up to 1000+ horsepower builds when paired with ARP head studs.
- UPC: 1037721243539
This gasket outperforms factory options by handling boost pressures beyond 25 psi without deformation, giving you confidence in every rev. It's the direct solution for BMW owners seeking dependable head sealing that supports power gains from forced induction without the risks of gasket failure seen in lesser alternatives.
Vehicle Fitment
Compatible with BMW vehicles equipped with S50 or S52 inline-six engines. Confirm your engine code before purchase.
