Powder Metal Piston Cooling Jets

Metaldyne's patented piston cooling jet technology and processing offer an ideal solution to piston lubrication and cooling needs in the engine. Piston cooling jets are typically used for continuous, directed lubrication onto moving parts or targeted, controlled cooling of the undercrown of the piston. Metaldyne's designed piston cooling jets effectively direct oil flow into the areas that need it most.

Metaldyne Piston Cooling Jets feature:

• Packaging flexibility
• A ball style flow control check valve, offering maximum flow efficiency at an equivalent pressure as a piston style valve
• Delayed valve opening at low pressure for reduced leakage and maintained oil pressure at idle conditions
• Patented net-shape internal oil flow channel increases efficiency and oil stream precision for hitting tighter target requirements
• Patent-pending check valve seat geometry reduces noise of opening and closing pressure
• Net shape powder metal molding process reduces machining cost.
