Another special-use thermalrier coating is White Light-ning'" for exhaust headers,manifolds, pipes and tur-bos. This thicl< insulatingcoating contains heat insideexhaust pipes to increaseexhaust gas velocity and im-prove scavenging for moreefficient heat extraction.The result is a significant in-crease in horsepower. It alsoeliminates rust and corro-sion.

2. Low friction coatingsI(nown also as dry fi1m lubricants, they are subdivided into two cat-egorres.

A. Self-lubricating low friction coatingsSelflubricating dry (or solid) coatings are applied to piston skirts; enginebearings; valve stems; valve springs; camshafts; oil and fuel pumps, etc.These dry coatings, while being selflubricating also hold oil on surfacesand have a very low coefficient of friction. Swain has specific formulationsfor sliding friction and for rotating friction. Poly-Mbly'" and PC-9'" areused for sliding friction, typically on piston skirts-here it reduces piston-

to-cylinder friction and bore wear. PPM'" is usedfor rotational friction on bearings. For exampletests have shown that uncoated bearings can run30 degrees hotter than the engine oil. With PPMon bearings that temperature is reduced signifi-cantly. Self-lubricating low friction coatings dra-matically increase the life of the valve springs andallows the spring to hold its tension longer. AII ofthese Swain formulas are very helpful when en-gine parts are momentarily starved of oil. Thesecoatings are usually less than .001" thick so ma-chining tolerances rarely have to be altered.

B. Oil shedding low friction coatingsOil shedding types of dry film coatings are used on connecting rodsand crankshaft counter weights to reduce parasitic oil drag. It is alsoused on oil pans to aid in oil drain-back. These non-stick coatingscause oil to bead up (high surface tension) and prevent the oil fromr l i n o i n o t ^ n r r t s

3. Heat emitting coatingsThe third type of coating is for heat dissipation. Swain's formulascontain high emissivity materials like copper oxides, vanadium andferrites which radiate heat away from a surface. Black Body Emitter(BBE ") is applied to the exteriors of brake calipers and rotors, intakemanifolds, heads, intercoolers, air cooled cylinders and other engineparts which tend to retain unwanted heat. BBE is semi-gloss, veryfunctional and very durable.

Conclusion: Now you can understand that Swain's coatings solvemany problems of internal combustion piston engines and down-stream power train parts. You are probably thinking this is all veryexpensive, not true! You could have Swain apply dome and skirt coat-ings to your plston for under $40 or an entire V-8 engine for less than$i500. The immediate benefit would be a 2 to 5% increase in horse-power but thats not the only reason to use Swain's coatings. Long-term benefits include;

1. Extending engine durability 3. Increasing reliability2. Reducing friction 4. Improving power via thermal

emclencySwain's coatings protect the money you spend on a high performanceengine which is now stressed and prone to a reduced life expectancy.If you use coatings to protect; pistons, combustion chambers, valvesand springs, ports, headers and bearings-you'll get the most bang forthe buck in terms of power and durability.

The truth about Ceramics and other coating technologiesA publication of Swain Tech Coatings, Inc.

Swain developed first successfulceramic engine coatingsIn the 1970s, Swain Tech Coatings developed the first successful ce-ramic engine coatings. Since then, Swain is recognized as the nation'sleader in coating technology. Our research and development programcontinues to perfect new coatings for new applications.'We now offerthe widest range and best quality coatings for the high performanceindustry.

'We have formulated specific coatings to control heat, fric-

tion and wear. Our coatings address three dynamic categories of ve-hicle performance;

1. Thermal barrier coatings-reduces heat transfer

2. Low friction coatings-reduces power-robbing frictionano wear

3. Heat emitting coatings-promotes heat transfer(dissipation)

1. Thermal barrier coatingsThese coatings hold in heat. Controiled heat makes power. The moreheat you generate and control, the more horsepower you make. ButlInternal combustion engines are horrible at managing heat and onlyuse about 25o/o of the heat energy created by the combustion process.Most heat escapes through the exhaust system. Heat not exhausted isabsorbed into the engine

Uncoated pistons, combustion cl-rambers, ports and valve faces allowheat to migrate into the cooling system and raises the temperature ofthe whole engine. This heat transfer process continues until the enginehas reached its maximum inelficiency, Swain thermal barrier coatings(TBC* and GoldCoat'") allow en-gines to reach their potential. Coat-ings have side benefits; piston ringsealing is improved, sometimes asmaller radiator can be used anddetonation is reduced.

Internal engine coatings"Heat makes power'l Too much heat causes compo-nent failure. Swain applies coatings to control andmanage heat for optimum performance. Engines op-erate by converting thermal energy (heat) into kineticmovement energy. A typical engine only convertsabout 25 to 30% of its thermal energy into horsepow-

Cylinder headsTBC." is also recommended for cylinder heads too asa barrier to heat loss. Coatine combustion chambersin heads raises combustion temperature as it reducesoverall head temperarure. More horsepower is ob-tained and less cooling is required. TBC causes powergains in all heads but gains are magnified in aluminum

heads. Aluminum is more thermally con-ductive and looses more heat tl-ran cast ironheads. Racers using TBC coated aluminumheads report a crisper throttle response andreduced'bogi We also coat exhaust ports tokeep exhaust gas temperatures and gas ve-locities high as exhaust gases are scavengedout of the engine without transferringheat to a four stroke cylinder head or two

Mike Moran'(nucleartunestt his drag carswith Swain coatings

Mike has been a consistent Street CarClass winning drag racer for years.Prior to 1996, Mike experiencedengine failures when he increasedhis nitrous and timing. Parts meltedin scorching runs. His "Ghost" Ca-maro, at the time, would consistentlyrun in mid 190 mph but he couldn'tadd the 5 mph to break the 200 mphNMCA record. In frustration, Miketurned to Swain for Gold Coated pis-ton domes and PC-9 coated skirts.Thus armed with optimum powerand minimized worries about melt-ing engines, Mike turned 201 mphwith a ET of 6.96 and placed himselfin the history books. What worked inl!!6, works today.Mike explains that today some trackrules place a disadvantage on hiscar and he must face more powerfulcompetitors. If he tuned the motor tolive, he would loose. All too often, hehas to "nuclear tune" his engine t0just live through just one blisteringpass ofthe quarter mile. Swain coat-ings allow him to do that. Mike hashis engine internals coated and theexhaust as well. He savs that by coaring the exhaust valves in his turboengine, he can prevent them fromcrystallizing from the intense heat.He also said that he can run his EGTsup to 1650" without engine failure.Many tuners would be fearsome ofrunning past 1400',Todav Mike is a top engine builderand still races.

er. The unused heat is wastedand is absorbed into pistons,heads, ports, valves and ex-haust systems where it has anegative effect. Swain TechCoatings manage this nega-tive heat transfer to obtainoptimal power, performanceand part durability.

Piston Domes-TBC'"ceramic coatingChoose TBC'" for most nor-mally aspirated and mild boostengines. 5th generation TBC isa proven and true ceramic ther-mal barrier coating. It uses ourexclusive SmartCoat'" technol-ogy which allows TBC ceramic toexpand at the same rate as thepiston. This common expan-sion rate is terribly important.Coatings which don't flex withthe host metal can fail. TBCcoated pistons run cooler andretain much more of theirtensile strength. TBC pro-tects against high temperatureoxidation, eliminates hot spots,and encourages proper flametravel. Ceramic also spreads heatevenly over the entire domereducing detonation, pre- ,s,$$io,'ignition and allows the use oflower octane fuel. Less heat isconducted through the wristpins and rods, which keeps thecrank, bearings and oil cooler.

Piston Domes-GoldCoat'"ceramic coatingSwain has developed a uniqueceramic thermal barrier for pis-ton domes in Nitrous, Turbo andSupercharged engines. GoldCoat."manages high temperature heatspikes and high temperature oxida-tion common to these high perfor-mance ensines. GoldCoat offers thesame benefits of TBC (above) but pro-vides extra dome protection at highertemperatures.

PPM will keep yoursprings from fatiguing due toreduced heat and friction. Swaincoated springs run cooler becausefriction caused by spring move-ment is greatly reduced. Heat nor-mally generated from the head, fromspring movement and exhaust portsis drawn away due to the high conduc-tivity of PPM coating. This isopposite of Teflon coatedsprings which tend toinsulate.

PPM- Coated bearings and camsSwain PPM'" coated bearing shells are not appreciablyaltered dimensionally but have dramatically improvedbearing and journal life. Oil-attracting, low-frictioncoatings allow bearing parts to move more freely andprovide back-up lubrication when oil starvation oc-curs.

Other applications for frictioncontrol coatingsMany frictional surfaces inside a per-formance engine can be coated. Coat-ed transmission and rear-end searswill also experience improved weir lifeand reduced friction (heat) betweenmoving parts. If you have a high rev-ving engine-oil shedding coatings willallow faster oil drain-back and reducesthe amount of oil adherins to rods andcrank counter weights.

MWMBlack Body EmitterSwain Tech Coatings developed BBE " (Black Body Emitter)coating to improve heat transfer and improve cooling for criti-cal parts. BBE is a unique coatingwhich has high heat emissiv-ity and radiates heat away from any Swain treated surface. BBEis used on air cooled cylinders, valve covers, oil coolers, radia-tors, brake parts, intake manifolds and other surfaces. BBE isalso an attractive and durable black finish, which will not dis-solve from gas, alcohol and automo-tive chemicals. BBE provides greatcorrosion protection on aluminum,cast iron, titanium and steel parts.Black Body Emitter is vital for use onvintage racing motorcycles, cars andsnowmobiles-especially those withcast iron barrels which llad a renrr-tation for self destruction due toexcessive heat.

Brake coatings

Brakes are all about heat. Turn-ing kinetic energy into frictionmakes you stop. Friction causesheat-when it gets too high, it can crip-ple the brake system. Expelling heataway from brake parts and keeping ex-cessive heat away from the brake fluid isa critical task of developing a top-notchL - ^ 1 . ; - ^u r d \ i l r B ) y D L t r r r r .

Rotors. Swain developed a highwear ceramic which increases frictionfor better braking power. At the sametime, it transfers less heat. An idealcombination for short track androad course racers. Swain's coat-ing helps cast rotors, preventsaluminum rotors from warp-ing and protects titanium ro-tors from galling. If your rotor isa vented style, we can apply BlackBody Emitter (BBE ") to the ventsto help draw heat away from therotor.Calipers. Our caliper coatingsare very trick. The outside surfac-es coated with Black Body Emit-ter improve heat transfer awayfrom the caliper. Because the in-terior surfaces ofthe calipers aredirectly in line for radiant heatfrom the rotor, these surfac-es are ceramic coated toreduce heat from soak-ing into the caliper. Theback ofthe pads can alsobe ceramic coated to l<eepheat from transferring throughthe pad and getting into the brake fluid.

I)anny l(ellermeyer's winning Corvetteteann cars uses Swain coatingsDanny Kellermeyer, owner of DJ Racing, was a regional field en-gineer for GM before he took early retirement. Since then he hasapplied an engineer's approach to road course Corvette racing.His team of five cars "wins all the time" and frequently whips proteams. The reason is his methodical engineer's approach. Everyyear Danny researches some new product to include in all his carsduring the annual tear down/rebuild. In 1999 he investigated fourbrands of ceramic coating. His analysis and extensive testing re-vealed only one supplier qualified with superior coatings to supplyTeam DJ Racing, He said of Swain..."Swain's a stand,oat, all oftbeir products do exactly as adaertised...absolutely AI !"His tearn cars use alloy LSI blocks which shape-change constantlyunder racing temperatures. Swain Tech coated rod and main bear-ings are an "absolute necessity for us" because when the enginesexpand in heat as high as 1380", bearing clearances can shrinkto .001 1", this is beyond the lubricating ability of oil because tol-erances get s0 thin. Here's where Swain's coating acts as a tem-porary lubricant t0 prevent galling and engine destruction. Whenengines cool 800', bearing tolerances can grow to .004", "Nowyou'ue got parts slapping around and wiping oilfrom the bear-ing surfaces-another path to engine destruction. Swain's stuffeliminates all that".Braking is almost as important as engine performance to a rcadracer s0 Danny talked about brakes. He has Swain coat his brakeparts to make them last longeq brake better and saves him money.Ile installed a thermocouple in the brake pad material .050" belowthe contact surface of the rotor. This data convinced Danny thatSwain's products do really control heat in brake parts. Uniquely,he uses stock GM rotors which anyone can buy for 70 bucks. '7

send my rotors to Swain and pay about 175 bucks for coatings.My )EM rotors last longer than guys with $700 race rotors whochange those trick items after euery race. Wl4t pay rnore thanyou haue to?"Danny moved on to the subject of Swain's White lightning exhaustand header coaling. "This stuff is awsome. " The loss of powerin race headers is staggering he says. Heat should be containedin the pipe for increased power, "Coruettes are built tight yoahnow, Without conted pipes the cabin floor temperatures actu-afii bumed our driuers heek. That doesn't happen anyrnore."On another note he said "Guys who fiberglass wrap their pipesare insane. In the intensity ofpit stops, replenished, oil is sureto spill on the wrap ruaterial, I guarantee you witltin two laps,

they'll haue afi,re."You'd be advised to listen to an 'ooen

AnAmaztng story from Finish Line RacingSdroolMike and his wife, frrisal (also a racer), own and operale Finish lineRacing School in Edgewaer Florida" It is a very successfrrl short mack/orzl driving school. When not conducting school classes, Mike oflenhires out as a "coach" for experienced and up-and-coming drivers allover the country In hA Donnie Schat, an already accomplished sprintcar dxiver, carne to Mike to leam more about driving. Ihe followingyear he won the World of Outlaw Championship. Mike is tha good ofatradter.

Mike's owns 14 school can. All his cars have $16,000, 550 hp enginestuming 7,000 rpms. By conffast, other schools use $5,000 crate mo-hn pufring out 300-400 hp at 5000{100 rpms. Those schools just junktheir crate engines when thry grenade after 1,000 or so laps. Mike onttre other hand, sends his big buck engine parts to $rain before theyareused. Mosl engines get the normal S\ilain treatrnent. Mike's coated en-gines will mn 30,000 to 40,000 laps and show no wear. He tells his pis-ton and ottrer parts zuppliers about the laps dreir parts are making andsuppliers don't believe him. Mike says if he uses good oil and changesout litrle parls like wrist pins, piston locks, and ralves, a S\n'ain engine willlast 136,000 laps-this is unheard of. Mike's mechanics pull the motondown every 5,000 miles just to make sure all is ri$t and each time thryjust shake fteir heads-werything look new. Mike sap a school car ina thrre-day session will run the laps Ihat a race car engine does overan entire season. He sap about Swain engnes, "ure danl hnn enginefaikrcs".let's do some mattr on all this.
