Ultra High-Strength Materials Reduce Heavy-Duty Cylinder Liner Distortion
Advanced cast iron technology from Federal-Mogul Powertrain leads to lower oil consumption and reduced bore friction; allows higher combustion pressuresBurscheid, Germany, 20 July 2016 … Federal-Mogul Powertrain, a division of Federal-Mogul Holdings Corporation (NASDAQ: FDML) has become the first company to bring ultra high-strength iron cylinder liners into series production. Made of a special form of compacted graphite iron (CGI), the latest formulation – designated GOE330 – reduces the typical bore distortion under maximum piston side thrust by up to 27 percent, compared to existing iron
