A piston liner, also known as a cylinder liner, plays a crucial role in the engine of a car by providing a smooth and durable surface for the piston to move within. It is typically made from cast iron or aluminum and is designed to withstand high temperatures and pressures that occur during the combustion process. The liner helps to maintain the proper alignment of the piston as it moves up and down, ensuring efficient engine performance and power output. By reducing friction between the piston and the cylinder wall, the piston liner contributes to improved fuel efficiency and reduced wear on engine components.

In addition to its role in supporting the piston, the piston liner also aids in heat dissipation. As the engine operates, it generates significant heat, and the liner assists in transferring this heat away from the combustion chamber. This helps to prevent overheating and potential damage to the engine. Furthermore, the liner can also act as a barrier to protect the engine block from combustion gases and contaminants, which can lead to corrosion and other forms of degradation. Overall, the piston liner is an essential component that enhances the longevity and efficiency of a car's engine.
