PERFORATED ADDITIVE LINER
PERFORATED ADDITIVE LINER An additive liner for tank ammunition—specifically for large-caliber rounds like 105mm, 120mm or 155mm Armor-Piercing Fin-Stabilized Discarding Sabot (APFSDS) & Fin Stabilized Armour Piercing Discarding Sabot (FSAPDS) Ammunition is a specialized, combustible component designed to increase gun barrel life by reducing erosion. The liner acts as a wear-reducing additive that forms an insulating layer on the bore surface, protecting it from the high-temperature propellant gases often improving it from 100 to 1,000 rounds.Key SpecificationsInsulating/Cooling Layer: Waxy mixture (paraffin and microcrystalline wax) combined with talc (talcum powder) or TiO2 Combustible/Strengthening Layer: Cotton gauze base, coated with waxy mixture, and is sometimes perforated to manage combustion.
