About: Nigusil

An Entity of Type: mineral, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Nigusil is a patented metal alloy created by Moto Guzzi for motorcycle cylinder liners. The name is an acronym for Nickel-Guzzi-Silicon. Moto Guzzi, having successfully created the first engine with a chromed cylinder lining, continued research to find a material that could replace chrome. The research culminated with Nigusil, a nickel-silicon alloy applied to the cylinder through special procedures. This innovation allowed lower friction coefficient in the engine, significantly lower levels of mechanical parts wear, and considerable savings of lubricant. Treatment of cylinders through Nigusil was also used by many manufacturers, Maserati among them, and generally on racing engines.

dbo:abstract
  • Nigusil (acronyme de nickel-Guzzi-silicium) est la marque d'un alliage métallique développé et breveté par Moto Guzzi. Introduit en 1979, il succède aux chemises en fonte ou chromées utilisées par le constructeur. Cet alliage nickel-carbure de silicium est déposé par galvanoplastie sur les cylindres de moteurs à explosion. Il permet une diminution du coefficient de frottement de la chemise, ce qui réduit le niveau d’usure des pièces mécaniques en contact (segments, jupe des pistons) et économise l’huile. Le traitement anti-usure des cylindres au Nigusil a été utilisé par d’autres constructeurs, tels Maserati pour la Biturbo, et plus généralement sur des moteurs de compétition.[réf. nécessaire] Pour Moto Guzzi, le revêtement Nigusil a été une alternative au bien plus connu (en) inventé et breveté par le fabricant d'équipement d'origine Mahle en 1966.

It was also used on the higher performance 850 cc 850 Le Mans II model. From engine 80390 (in Europe) in mid-1980, the Nigusil-plated bores introduced with the second series of the II engine allowed the use of lighter pistons and rings with closer tolerances. These ran cooler than the earlier engine, giving more consistent tolerances and reducing the engine's previously high oil consumption. Nigusil is often confused with Nikasil and some texts use the term interchangeably. (en)
  • Nigusil è una particolare lega metallica brevettata dalla Moto Guzzi, il suo nome infatti è acronimo di Nikel-Guzzi-Silicio. (it)
  • Nigusil is een gepatenteerde metaallegering, uitgevonden door Moto Guzzi als vervanging van Nikasil. Nigusil en Nikasil zijn bekledingen van cilinders van verbrandingsmotoren ter vervanging van cilindervoeringen. De naam "Nigusil" is samengesteld uit NIchel-GUzzi-SILicio (nikkel-Guzzi-silicium).
