About Thermal Barriers
Insulkote and Piston Coat are just a few of NIC's thermal barriers. These products perform the important function of insulating components that operate at elevated temperatures. Used extensively in the automotive industry, thermal barrier products increase performance, while protecting against heat oxidation, corrosion and reduce maintenance costs.
Recommended Uses:
- Piston Domes
- Combustion Chambers
- Valve Faces
- Thermal Barrier Protection
About Insulkote
Insulkote reduces heat transfer and protects against damage related to high temperatures of internal and external exhaust systems, automotive firewalls and industrial equipment. Proven to withstand temperatures in excess of 1800°F and reduce radiant temperatures up to 600°F, Insulkote can be used as a base coat to increase heat retention, thus improving performance, horsepower and exhaust gas velocity.
Recommended Uses:
- Piston Domes
- Combustion Chambers
- Valve Faces
- Thermal Barrier Protection
About Piston Coat
Piston Coat is a uniquely designed formula that can withstand the continuous detonation, thermal shock and the elevated temperatures of an internal combustion engine regardless of the type of fuel burned. Piston Coat protects engine components by reducing the temperature of the parts and oil while maintaining combustion temperatures for a more complete fuel burn, reducing particulate and emission levels. Piston coat can also be used as an exhaust coating when one of the best in quality is desired.
Recommended Uses:
- Piston Domes
- Combustion Chambers
- Valve Faces
- Thermal Barrier Protection
