Silicon Nitride Structure Parts

Silicon nitride offers a number of benefits, such as low friction, high wear and chemical resistance, high temperature capability and high electrical resistivity. It is nonmagnetic, has low specific weight, and offers long service life. Recently, silicon Nitride has been used in the brake discs of the McLaren P1, a highly sophisticated road car.
