摘要: An unchamfered piston ring that is pre-treated by grit blasting to a defined roughness, followed by PVD coating with a metal nitride to a thickness of at least 10 μm, leaving peaks and valleys in the coated piston ring. The coated piston ring is then lapped to remove the peaks without penetrating the coating, so that valleys and plateaus remain in the coated surface. The resulting piston ring exhibits superior coating retention due to the increased surface area created by the grit blasting, and yet also superior performance, as the cavities remaining increase the porosity of the coating and thus enhance the lubrication of the ring.

摘要: A piston ring is formed from a steel substrate consisting of the carbon in a range of 0.80-0.95 wt. %, silicon in a range of 0.30-0.55 wt. %, manganese in a range of 0.25-0.5 wt. %, phosphorus in a range of up to 0.04 wt. %, sulfur in a range of up to 0.04 wt. %, chromium in a range of 17-18 wt. %, molybdenum in a range of 0.70-1.25 wt. %, vanadium in a range of 0.05-0.15%, the remainder iron. The ring has been through hardened and tempered so that it has a hardness of 46-54 HRC. A coating is then applied via PVD or other suitable methods onto the ring surface to create the finished piston ring.
