Silicon nitride components can eliminate wear and galling of cam rollers and the adjoining cam lobe or pump rollers in diesel engines. Performance of silicon nitride in diesel engine/fuel delivery applications depends on the selection of the specific silicon nitride grade and manufacturing route. Cost of the product and lifetime benefit are major factors for successful applications. Components cost generally depend on the raw material cost, materials processing route, and product finishing costs.
