Engine Component Applications 

Engine components experience both sliding and rolling contact between the internal mechanical components. Any reduction in friction between these contact surfaces equates directly to increased fuel economy, reduced maintenance and extended vehicle life.


Timken Engineered Surface technology addresses engine performance limits with a toolbox of surface enhancement technologies. Our experts can create a customized combination of surface modification processes for cam rollers, valve springs, fuel injectors, rocker arms and other components. In engines, where component surface characteristics drive performance, Timken Engineered Surfaces are available to reduce wear, fatigue and friction.
