Ceramic cores are used as "salt cores" or sacrificial structures to form cavities for precise, complex shapes in automotive investment casting processes. For example, piston rings for automotive engines require precision geometries and features for low-friction, good-sealing, long-life performance — using ceramic cores for tight tolerances and precise features. CoorsTek ceramic cores are engineered for precision tolerance, high thermal stability, low thermal expansion, and soluble removal.
