INDUSTRIAL INJECTION PDM-3354CC.040 DODGE PERFORMANCE PISTONS FOR 1998.5-2002 CUMMINS .040 OVER

1998.5-2002 24v Cummins Performance Pistons .040. PDM's Ceramic Piston Skirt Coating, is designed to be used, on any rigid or semi rigid surface experiencing sliding, rotating or oscillating friction.

This coating will carry loads in excess of 350,000 PSI as well as lubricate at temperatures in excess of 1600f. This coating combines the durability of a ceramic resin with the lubricity of the ceramic lubricant.

It is used in applications where high temperatures, high loads and high speeds are experienced. When higher temperatures, than most other types of coatings can provide protection at, are experienced, this coating is fully capable of carrying the load. Gray in color it acquires a glass like finish in use. Cured film thickness of .001 or less requires no change is piston clearance.

PDM's Thermal Barrier Coating for piston tops is designed for Performance engines running; Nitrous oxide, supercharged or Turbocharged. It creates a hard surface specifically designed for engines running High volumes of fuel and/or high compression ratios.

The thermal barrier coating. Reduces part temperature. Keeps heat in combustion chamber longer through the power stroke. Increase torque, H.P. and improved combustion chamber efficiency.

Fly cutting is a machining Process we use to add Piston to valve Clearance, when using High lift camshaft.

Chamfering:

Our performance and race Cummins pistons are Chamfered (The top is tapered to help avoid swelling and Scuffing the Cylinder Wall.)

The INDUSTRIAL INJECTION PDM-3354CC.040 DODGE PERFORMANCE PISTONS are engineered specifically for 1998.5-2002 24v Cummins engines, setting a new standard for performance and durability. Offering a precision .040 over size, these pistons are designed to maximize your engine's potential, whether for regular performance upgrades or full-on racing applications.

One of the standout features of these pistons is the advanced Ceramic Piston Skirt Coating, which addresses the challenges of sliding, rotating, and oscillating friction. This innovative coating withstands forces exceeding 350,000 PSI and maintains excellent lubricity at temperatures above 1600°F, ensuring optimal performance under extreme conditions. The gray finish develops a glass-like appearance during operation while maintaining a cured film thickness of .001 or less, eliminating the need for adjustments to piston clearance.

Additionally, the Thermal Barrier Coating applied to the piston tops plays a crucial role in enhancing engine efficiency. Ideal for turbocharged, supercharged, or nitrous oxide applications, it reduces part temperatures and keeps heat within the combustion chamber longer, ultimately improving torque and horsepower while enhancing combustion efficiency.

Each set of PDM pistons comes complete with rings, wrist pins, and clips, making them a convenient drop-in replacement. The performance and race versions feature chamfered tops to prevent swelling and scuffing of the cylinder wall, along with meticulously fly-cut designs that provide .100 valve reliefs for added clearance when using high lift camshafts.

Whether for performance enthusiasts seeking reliability or racers demanding high output, the PDM-3354CC.040 DODGE PERFORMANCE PISTONS offer an unmatched blend of technology and engineering excellence, helping you achieve your performance goals with confidence.
