A piston ring with a coated outer surface is provided. The coating is disposed on end sections of the outer surface adjacent a gap. Typically, a middle section of the outer surface located between the end sections is not coated. The coating can be formed of CrN or DLC, and the CrN coating can be applied by physical vapor deposition (PVD). The end sections of the outer surface, upon which the coating is applied, are rough. For example, the outer surface can be blasted or otherwise textured to achieve the rough surface. The rough surface retains oil and distributes stress better than a smooth surface, and thus reduces crazing and flaking of the coating.

A damper system for a vehicle including a pressure tube and a piston assembly. A stroke dependent damper assembly is coupled to a piston rod at a position below the piston assembly. A free floating piston positioned in an internal cavity of the stroke dependent damper assembly is longitudinally moveable between retracted, middle, and extended positions. A metering pin extends from the floating piston into a through-bore in a distal end of the stroke dependent damper assembly. An orifice is defined between an inner surface of the through-bore and an outer surface of the metering pin. Longitudinal movement of the floating piston changes the position of the metering pin in the through-bore, which changes the size of the orifice. Fluid flow through the orifice is restricted when the orifice size decreases, which slows down the movement of the floating piston as it approaches the retracted and extended positions.

The recesses preferably have a radius of curvature less than a radius of curvature of the remaining outer surface of the pin. The pin is rotationally fixed relative to the connecting rod. As the connecting rod swings back and forth during operation, some of the recesses rotate beyond the load bearing region of the pin joint where oil is located, allowing oil to fill the recesses. As the pin swings back, these recesses carrying the oil enter the load bearing region of the pin joint, transferring the oil with them. Preferably, at least one of the recesses aligns with an oil opening in the pin, which aligns with an oil hole in the connecting rod, to receive and distribute oil along the full length of the pin.
