Ceramic Engine Sleeves

A cylinder sleeve also called cylinder liners or engine sleeves is a cylindrical metal engine component that protects an engine s bore and can be used to create bore dimensions after an engine has been over bored or modified cylinder sleeves also assist in transferring heat from the piston to the coolant if you are running a wet sleeve.

Ceramic engine sleeves.

Because sleeves are flangeless a tight fit keeps the sleeve from moving up and down in the bore when the engine reaches operating temperature. When a sleeve is installed into a cast iron block the process is fairly simple and effective. Melling cylinder sleeves can also make sleeves for custom applications. Ceramic technologies is your source for high temperature ceramic fiber sleeves tape tadpole tape rope paper fabric adhesives sealants potting compounds rigid machineable dense forms.

Removable engine exhaust system blankets for marine engines generators backup power generators. Bore diameters larger than 5 1 8 are stocked only with 1 8 wall thickness. Here is an article on the prospects for an adiabatic turbo diesel from 1987 adiabatic diesel engine technology in future transportation. Optimized for internet explorer.

It is a thermal spray process but they spray a combination of iron iron oxide and maybe other stuff like nickel onto aluminium bores saw it at a conference. Not for use with ceramic coated aluminum or 300 series stainless steel shafts. The mahle clevite policy is to meet or exceed oe specs for material construction and hardness on sleeves. Interest in and experimentation with ceramics in the internal combustion engine ice goes way back.

Clevite assemblies are ready for installation and have a finish machined or rough turned cylinder bore depending on the type of engine. They are self aligning to compensate for shaft misalignment and have end seals to keep lubricant in and dirt out. For technical drawings and 3 d models click on a.
