Ceramic Seals Scorpions





The quality of this material can only be described in one way. No expense has been spared, only the best, the toughest, high temperature gray material ceramic was chosen. This product is made with the highest quality material that can withstand temperatures of up to 1400 ēC under continuous use and its’ fracture toughness is fantastic. The material is tested for thermal shock capability by heating it to 1100 ēC then dropping it into a pail of 20ēC water, without breakage. It has been said that no one has been able to thermal shock this material into breaking, i.e. it should be ideal for nitrous. The seals will be machined with 0.0055" overall clearance. Growth of the seal (13B) has been calculated at 420 ēC and is under 0.004". Remember it takes a lot more than 420 ēC ambient temperature to get the ceramic that hot.
