Description
Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) for Extreme Friction Reduction. The Kelford Cams DLC Coated Cam Follower for the 2015-2023 Mustang EcoBoost is a critical high-performance upgrade designed to withstand the extreme pressures of modified valvetrains. By applying a specialized Diamond-Like Carbon coating to the contact surface, Kelford has significantly reduced the coefficient of friction between the camshaft lobe and the follower. This results in less heat generation and smoother mechanical operation, which is essential when running high-lift aftermarket camshafts or increased valve spring pressures that would otherwise cause rapid wear on standard components.
Superior Wear Resistance and Surface Hardness. The DLC coating is one of the hardest finishes available in automotive engineering, providing a surface that is virtually immune to galling and pitting. In the high-stress environment of the 2.3L EcoBoost engine, particularly in high-horsepower builds, factory followers can suffer from surface fatigue and wiping under heavy loads. These Kelford followers provide a protective barrier that extends the life of both the follower and the camshaft itself, ensuring that your valvetrain geometry remains precise and your engine stays healthy during high-RPM track use or high-boost street pulls.
Optimized for High-Lift Camshafts and High-RPM. As you increase the performance of your 2015-2023 Mustang EcoBoost, the valvetrain becomes a primary point of failure. These DLC coated followers are specifically intended for engines equipped with Kelford's high-performance cam profiles. The reduction in friction not only prevents wear but also frees up a marginal amount of horsepower that would otherwise be lost to parasitic mechanical drag. This makes them a mandatory insurance policy for enthusiasts looking to push the 2.3L platform toward its mechanical limits while maintaining long-term reliability.
