Millennium Technologies wants to keep its customers revving high. The company maintains a stock of some 2,000 types of remanufactured cylinders, primarily for snowmobiles and motorcycles. It coats its cylinders with a nickel silicon carbide (NSC) -- the only thing harder is diamonds. Unlike other coatings, NSC is electroplated, rather than sprayed on, allowing the firm to offer a lifetime warranty for its work. Millennium also repairs cylinders. The parts retailer keeps its brand in front of current and potential clients by sponsoring motorcycle racers, several of whom have taken top prize in their events. President Jim Hackl founded Millennium Technologies in 1997.
