Abstract

A tribological system for an internal combustion engine is disclosed. The tribological system includes a valve seat ring having a first contact surface and a valve having a second contact surface that can placed on the first contact surface for closing a valve opening and is arranged in a seat area of the valve. The valve in the seat area has a seat base composed of a high-nickel-content or a nickel-based material, and is coated with a nickel-based plating that comprises nickel as a main component, to form the second contact surface.
