  2. Deglazing (engine mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deglazing_(engine_mechanics)

    In order to correct the situation, a mechanic can take the engine apart, and deglaze the cylinders, usually using an abrasive. This creates a roughly 45 degree angle crosshatching of tiny grooves in the cylinder wall, and restores the engine's performance. [1]

  3. Deglazing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deglazing

    Deglazing refers to the removal of a shiny or smooth surface. Deglazing (cooking) , using a liquid to remove cooked-on residue from a pan Deglazing (engine mechanics) , abrading the polished surface of a cylinder

  4. Accurizing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accurizing

    Many swing-out cylinder revolvers only support the cylinder securely at the rear, and flipping the cylinder open and closed can bend the crane and prevent the cylinder from lining up parallel to the bore. The cylinder bolt, which engages the bottom of the cylinder through a slot in the frame, should provide a relatively tight lockup, and not ...

    The construction is an aluminium cylinder head and a cast iron block. [ 7 ] [ 8 ] The bore is 93.4 mm (3.68 in) and the stroke is 84.0 mm (3.31 in), resulting in a displacement of 3,453 cc (210.7 cu in).

    The nickel silicon carbide solution can then be electroplated onto the aluminium cylinder bore. After the cylinders are plated, the Nikasil bores are diamond-honed to a plateau finish. Pistons will need to be fitted with Nikasil compatible piston rings as chrome rings commonly used with cast iron bores are not compatible. Due to Nikasil's ...

    In both types of engines there are one or more cylinders (grey and green), and for each cylinder there is a spark plug (darker-grey, gasoline engines only), a piston (yellow), and a crankpin (purple). A single sweep of the cylinder by the piston in an upward or downward motion is known as a stroke.

  8. Surface roughness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_roughness

    However, in practice it is often necessary to know both the amplitude and frequency to ensure that a surface is fit for a purpose. Roughness plays an important role in determining how a real object will interact with its environment. In tribology, rough surfaces usually wear more quickly and have higher friction coefficients than smooth ...

  9. Chrysler Slant-6 engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chrysler_Slant-6_engine

    The Slant-Six is the popular name for a Chrysler inline-6 internal combustion engine with an overhead valve reverse-flow cylinder head and cylinder bank inclined at a 30-degree angle from vertical. Introduced in 1959 for the 1960 models, it was known within Chrysler as the G-engine. It was a clean-sheet design that began production in 1959 at ...
