Let us engineer a solution for you swain tech coatings provides and services to reduce wear corrosion heat and or friction.

Is ceramic coated pistons.

Mahle who was the oem maker for every idi engine makes a piston that has a reflective coating on them too. Ceramic top pistons makes the heat brush off the top of the piston if thats the terminology you need to see. Piston coatings exhaust coatings ceramic coatings carbide coatings metal coatings polymer coatings ptfe coatings hard anodize hardcoat and thin hard coatings are some of the coatings that we apply. Cerakote v series piston coat is a dark bronze gold with a soft metallic look.

Tbc coated pistons run cooler and retain much more of their tensile strength. It is an oven cure ceramic thin film thermal barrier coating designed to be applied on the top of pistons on the top of valves and the combustion chamber on a cylinder head. Its a black coating and it works fine. 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.

Ceramic coated pistons can assist higher fuel burning efficiency and reduced carbon accumulation which in turn makes detonation more effective. Piston coat is an ambient air cure thin film ceramic thermal barrier designed to be applied on internal engine parts that require a thermal barrier. The ceramic also spreads the heat evenly over the entire coated surface reducing detonation pre ignition and allowing the use of lower octane fuel. Polydyn ceramic piston coating not only protects the piston but it makes the piston stronger and more efficient by significantly enhancing the structural integrity of the piston dome.

If measured on top of the armorfit coating the piston to cylinder clearance is less than the uncoated bare piston. The coating is also designed to aid in the more even transfer of heat reducing hot. Ceramic coating when applied to the tops of pistons acts as a reflector of heat minimizing its absorption into the piston diblasi explains. C lube dry film ceramic lubricant combines the durability of a ceramic resin with the lubricity of a ceramic lubricant.

Cerakote piston coat c 186 is a dark brass gold with a soft metallic finish. For example an uncoated wiseco piston manufactured for a 4 000 inch bore should be installed in a 4 000 inch bore and an armor fit coated piston designed for a 4 000 inch bore should also go into a 4 000 inch bore. All ferrous and non ferrous metals. Reflected heat gets less of a chance to warm up the piston in the first place providing a first line of defense.
