Many approaches can be used to reduce friction with the cylinder bores including synthetic oils plasma moly ring faces oil retention grooves in the skirt areas plateau cylinder wall finishes etc.
Ceramic moly coating.
Molybdenum disulfide coatings mos2 coatings also known as moly coatings are commonly used in applications where load carrying capacity operating pressure and coefficient of friction are primary concerns.
The moly coating prevents skirt scuffing that might otherwise repeatedly occur in that situation.
This coating provides effective lubrication in a wide range of loads in many cases exceeding 250 000 psi.
