DIAMOND’S TYPE 3 HARD-COAT ANODIZED PISTONS ARE CRITICAL FOR ENGINES WITH POWER ADDERS Features: 1) Hard-anodizing insulates the piston from heat, protecting against excessive combustion temperatures, detonation damage, and skirt wear 2) Diamond hard-anodizes the entire piston and then moly-coats the skirt if desired 3) Hard-anodizing possesses a surface finish approaching 70-Rockwell hardness 4) Highly recommended for nitrous and supercharged applications 5) This Type 3 aluminum oxide anodizing (technically a ceramic) provides the most effective heat barrier
