The Vertex Piston Kit is designed as a high-quality, OEM replacement solution for powersports enthusiasts. It includes a piston, rings, wrist pin, and circlips, making it a complete package for engine rebuilds or upgrades. Featuring advanced engineering and materials, the kit is available in configurations tailored to both 2-stroke and 4-stroke engines. **Key Features:** - **Material and Construction:** - 2-stroke piston kits are made from gravity-cast aluminum alloy with 18% silicone content, ensuring a lightweight yet durable construction. - 4-stroke pistons are forged from 2618 aluminum, offering superior strength and durability. - **Performance Enhancements:** - High-compression pistons improve power and torque across the entire RPM range. - Big-bore pistons increase engine displacement, torque, and peak horsepower. - **Heat Treatment:** - All pistons undergo a T-5 hardening and tempering cycle, enhancing strength and thermal stability. - **Skirt Coating:** - A molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) coating on the piston skirt reduces friction, allows for quicker break-in times, and increases piston life. - **OEM Compatibility:** - Both pistons and rings are designed as OEM replacements, ensuring a precise fit and reliable performance. The Vertex Piston Kit is trusted by leading manufacturers and is designed for use across a range of applications, including motorcycles, ATVs, marine engines, and karting. With its focus on durability, performance, and compatibility, this kit is an excellent choice for riders and racers seeking a high-quality piston replacement or upgrade.
