Piston Ring Groove Restoration Case
Laser-Powder-Cladding works by fusing new material onto old worn out surfaces through welding by laser. The new materials strengthen and enhance the original component to lengthen its lifespan, thereby improving overall engine efficiency at a fraction of the cost of buying a new component.

- Groove sizes restored with
virtually no porosity (GL reference) - Local damage repaired
- Anti friction coat applied as option
