Piston Coating Service

This event known as stribeck fitting minimizes friction and wear because components ride on a magic carpet of oil.

Piston coating service.

For high performance engines with aluminum blocks a iron coating is used. An apc is a graphite based material applied to piston skirts which acts as a self clearancing buffer between pistons and cylinder bores. Rp enhances the lubricity between the skirt and the cylinder wall reducing galling and wear of the piston assembly and increasing the engine s longevity. Piston coating services and piston coating equipment.

C lube dry film ceramic lubricant combines the durability of a ceramic resin with the lubricity of a ceramic lubricant. In oiled applications such as pistons our coatings support the oil film by several mechanisms. Piston coatings with precision clearances what s an abradable powder coating apc. Frees up horse power normally lost to friction.

A full service provider. Piston skirt coatings were developed at the end of the 1960s to reduce friction and scuffing. Your engine will have increased reliability higher horse power and superior thermal efficiency why spend more money buying new parts protect your old auto parts and save money today. The piston is fully machined to the designated outside diameter before the coating is applied in house at the wiseco manufacturing facility.

The coating protects the piston skirt from heat friction and wear resulting in a reduction of parasitic drag while decreasing heat saturation into the piston skirt. During break in they naturally seek the optimal position on the stribeck diagram. C lube is a thermally cured dry film lubricant designed to provide high pressure lubrication to surfaces subject to sliding rotating or oscillating motion such as piston skirts and gears. Home high volume high performance research development advantages contact store.

As the pistons cycle the coating wears in and fills incidental cylinder skirt bore clearances. The coating is also designed to aid in the more even transfer of heat reducing hot. Cerakote v series piston coat is a dark bronze gold with a soft metallic look. Benefits of piston skirt coating.

The exact depth of the coating is kept proprietary but it does conform to the detailed skirt shape and profile that is specific to each application.
