Application
Note Subject: Casidiam PAVCD vs
PVD Film Properties Application
Note.
Customers and Applications: There are several technologies
that can be used to deposit thin films. Within these technologies,
there are ranges of recipes that result in different films with
different properties. This bulletin describes the film properties
for Anatech’s Casidiam and a DLC PVD coating. |

Application
Note Subject: Connecting Rod & Piston Pin - Piston
Assembly Application Note.
Customers and Applications: Casidiam coated piston
pin that saved an engine block in a blown alcohol drag racing
application. The aluminum piston melted due to detonation, and
aluminum melted onto the surface of the connecting rod and the
inner diameter of the piston pin. |

Application
Note Subject: Spring Retainer Application
Note.
Customers and Applications: Spring retainer wear
decreases valve lift, which results in a gradual power decrease
during a race. Excessive wear can be catastrophic, as the retainer
weakens enough to break, and the valve drops into the cylinder.
Casidiam, a hard carbon coating used successfully in many applications,
has proven its value in preserving titanium valve spring retainers
under race conditions. |

Note Subject: Valve Application Note.
1/3
Customers and Applications: Valve wear is a problem
for nearly every type of racing engine. Wear hurts valve sealing,
causing horsepower loss that can only be recovered by remachining
or replacing valves, seats, or guides. |

Application
Note Subject: Wrist Pin Application Note.
Customers and Applications: Several race engine applications
require wrist pins to survive surface wear and loads that continue
to climb beyond the capabilities of traditional designs. Leading
racers and engine builders have turned to Casidiam, a proprietary
diamond-like carbon coating, as the solution for
surface wear. |
