ROTASYON CYLINDER LINER & PISTON . LTD. STI.
facebook: Rotasyon Liner Piston
Rotasyon has boosted its trademark with reference to quality and confidence in the international market after many years of extensive and rich background in manufacturing cylinder liners and pistons. In increasing the quality of its products, Rotasyon, day after day, has proved itself as one of the pioneering companies of its kind.
Dry cylinder liners are among the basic piston protectors. They must withstand extremely high temperatures and guard against impurities, so they are constructed of high-grade materials, such as cast iron and ceramic-nickle plating. Dry liners are much thinner than their counterpart, wet liners. They do not interact with the engine coolant but instead provide a very close fit with the jacket in the cylinder block to protect the piston from heat and impurities.
A cylinder liner is a device that is pressed into an engine block and houses the piston. It is much harder than the engine block and prevents the piston from wearing through the cylinder bore. Typically used in aluminum engine blocks and diesel engines, the cylinder liner is either pressed into position or held in place by the cylinder head. In large engines such as the engines found in diesel locomotives, the liner is part of an assembly containing a new piston, piston rings and a connecting rod and is changed as a complete unit during scheduled maintenance or repair.
The flat surface resulting from the machining of the engine block assures a proper seal of the head gasket between the cylinder head and the engine block. An improperly sealed head gasket will result in over-heating of the engine, loss of power, and the potential to ruin the block and cylinder head. Great care must be taken when installing a cylinder liner into an aluminum engine block since the aluminum block will react to heat at a different rate than the steel cylinder liner. Improper fit at installation could result in a broken liner or a cracked engine block.
