During initial operation, the coating breaks in to form a perfect fit between mating parts. Controlled abrasion even accounts for thermal and torque related distortions in components as the coating wears in. Once the optimum fit is achieved, stresses on the coating are reduced and the break-in process stops. Durable, low friction, anti-scuff properties of the coating maintain tighter operating clearances and higher efficiency for the life of the device.</span><o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><a href="https://www.line2linecoatings.com/">https://www.line2linecoatings.com/</a><o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><h2 style='mso-margin-top-alt:7.5pt;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:7.5pt;margin-left:0cm;line-height:30.0pt'><span style='font-size:16.5pt;font-family:"Droid Sans",serif;color:#404040'>Armor Clearance Control™ (Armor CC™)<o:p></o:p></span></h2><div style='border:solid white 1.0pt;padding:14.0pt 14.0pt 14.0pt 14.0pt;margin-top:15.0pt;margin-bottom:15.0pt;min-height:20px;border-radius:0px;outline:rgb(204,204,204) solid 1px'><h3 align=center style='mso-margin-top-alt:7.5pt;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:7.5pt;margin-left:0cm;text-align:center;line-height:30.0pt;background:#FFFFF2'><span style='font-family:"Droid Sans",serif;color:#404040'>For building diametric thickness 0.002" to 0.020" - our hardest skirt coating.<o:p></o:p></span></h3><p class=MsoNormal style='background:#FFFFF2'><span style='color:black'> </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal align=center style='text-align:center;background:#FFFFF2'><span style='color:black;border:solid windowtext 1.0pt;padding:0cm'><img border=0 width=100 height=100 style='width:1.0416in;height:1.0416in' id="Bild_x0020_1" src="cid:~WRD0000.jpg" alt="Das Bild wurde vom Absender entfernt."></span><span style='color:black'> <span style='border:solid windowtext 1.0pt;padding:0cm'><img border=0 width=100 height=100 style='width:1.0416in;height:1.0416in' id="Bild_x0020_2" src="cid:~WRD0000.jpg" alt="Das Bild wurde vom Absender entfernt."></span></span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='background:#FFFFF2'><span style='color:black'> </span><o:p></o:p></p><p style='mso-margin-top-alt:0cm;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:7.5pt;margin-left:0cm;line-height:18.0pt;background:#FFFFF2'><span style='font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#555555'>Extreme wear resistance provides lasting enlargement of piston skirt dimensions.
