Abstract: A sliding element, such as a piston ring, for use in diesel or highly supercharged spark-ignition engines with iron-based mating running elements is provided. The sliding element includes a base material made of cast iron or steel and a coating. The coating includes a CrN layer, an Me(CxNy) layer, and a DLC layer extending from the inside to the outer side respectively. The DLC layer consists of a metal-containing substructure layer and a metal-free DLC top layer. The Me(CxNy) layer is crystalline and Me is tungsten (W), chromium (Cr), or Silicon (Si). The hardness of the metal-free DLC top layer is harder than the metal-containing substructure layer.
