This article was originally published on MedicalDesign.com in June 2014. High-performance coatings are low-friction, dry-lubricant materials that achieve remarkable synergy by combining the ...

The piston skirt and pin account for about 17 percent of the frictional loss in a combustion engine as they are the most difficult to keep lubricated and have the largest contact surfaces. OE ...

Low-friction coatings are used on bearings for two reasons. The first is as a backup lubricant if the primary (fluid) lubricant fails or is insufficient to prevent surface-to-surface contact.

Machine parts wear, if there is friction between their metal surfaces. Lubricants and functional oils help prevent this. They attract dirt, debris and dust, and over time form lumps or become resinous ...

Before becoming qualified, each InnerArmor film is subjected to rigorous testing in Sub-One laboratories. This means in-depth measurement of the film’s thickness, hardness, modulus, toughness, ...
