Pierburg Pump Technology has mapped out a variety of approaches with a view to ensuring dependable lubrication and reliable regulation of the oil supply system under all operating conditions. The aim is to be able to supply pumps that address all the functional requirements while maintaining maximum efficiency and achieving the slightest possible losses. Pierburg Pump Technology’s design department has highly advanced design and simulation tools as well as extensive expertise in the structural analysis of finite elements (static, modal, spectral and fatigue), computer fluid flow dynamics (CFD) and multi-body simulation. Multi-body analysis were introduced to obtain precise information on the factors affecting moving components. The advantage of vane pumps is that they can be simply and continuously controlled over a large adjustment range with constant efficiency. What’s more, they can be positioned both on the crankshaft and in the oil pan. The solution chosen by Pierburg Pump Technology permits the use of various passive and active forms of control.

Metaloflex Cylinder-head Gaskets Elring cylinder-head gaskets are high-tech components used in modern combustion engines. As key components, they help to ensure that engines run efficiently, reliably and economically. Developed by ElringKlinger, Metaloflex is a globally recognized brand of innovative metal layer cylinder-head gaskets made of beaded, elastomer-coated spring steel layers. Multilayer steel cylinder-head gaskets are available in various bead designs and with a different number of layers, depending on the OE specification of the respective car manufacturer. Metaloflex gaskets may be of single or multi-layer design depending on the application. Thanks to the modular design elements, this sealing system can be individually adapted to suit the requirements of the specific engine. This technology avoids the need for time-consuming, costly iterative processes whilst guaranteeing maximum engine design flexibility.

Product Features:

• Produced from spring steel for long-lasting flexibility of beads
• Thermal stability up to 600F
• Full or partial FPM surface coverage of head and block layer for micro-sealing of liquids and combustion gas – extended service life

TRW Engine Components is a recognized developer of valves and valve train components. A wide range of materials and material combinations are used to meet the engineering requirements in the different engine applications. Materials vary from ferritic martensitic steels (intake valves) and austentic CrMn based steels to extreme heat and corrosion resistant Nickel base super alloy for exhaust valves. To improve wear and corrosion resistance, valves can be chromium plated or nitrided. These coatings are used to improve the compatibility of the valve stem surface to the valve guide material. If necessary, exhaust valves (and in some cases also intake valves) can be hard-faced. In hard-facing, a more heat and wear resistant material is welded to form the valve seat. Seat hard-facing extends the valve life significantly.

Product Features:

• OE Quality
• Optimized for strength
• Heat and corrosion resistant
• Chromium plated or nitrided
• Stem optimized to resist wear

MAHLE Original piston rings lead the way in ring technology and innovation for the Aftermarket – after all, MAHLE is the largest manufacturer of piston rings in the world. MAHLE Original rings are at the forefront of light vehicle piston ring technology. Extensive OE connections mean that MAHLE Original rings have the technological edge. Things like the CP-20 oil ring, narrow compression rings, steel compression rings for gasoline engines, low-tension oil rings and coated compression rings for diesels all came from the OE. The MAHLE Original performance line proves time and again that it should be the ring of choice under every hood – regardless of the application. Grey cast iron or ductile iron was traditionally the material of choice for automotive applications – today, steel is preferred over iron by more and more engine builders. Steel compression ring technology has been used in heavy-duty applications for over 30 years. That know-how has become essential to the design and engineering of today’s automotive engines. Steel piston rings offer higher tensile strength, higher yield strength, greater fatigue life, and greater hardness while still offering a lower ring mass. These factors lead to better stress resistance, reduced groove pound-out, longer service life, better conformability, superior oil economy, and improved blow-by control while still lowering friction.

Product Features:

• Ease of installation makes them the premier choice for rebuilders everywhere.
• The CP-20 rings can withstand the harsh operating environments in today’s engines.
• The CP-20 consists of a barrel-faced top compression ring for better seal and quicker break-in, a reverse torsional twist second ring for better oil control
• The CP-20 design oil ring that is easier to install
• Chemically polished for better oil drain-back
• A 20 degree ear angle to ensure side seal around the ring
