Engineered for reliability and precision, this piston is designed to meet the rigorous demands of high-performance engines, ensuring optimal compression and efficient power delivery.\n\n### Advanced Manufacturing and Material Quality\n\nVertex pistons are crafted using exotic Low-Ex (low expansion) silicon-charged aluminium alloys. Through a combination of gravity casting or hydraulic forging, each piston blank undergoes a sophisticated heat treatment process. This involves automated solubilization and hot water quenching, which refines the material structure for superior strength and durability.\n\n### Precision Engineering and Friction Reduction\n\nThe machining process utilizes state-of-the-art CNC technology and diamond-tipped tools to achieve precise surface finishes tailored to the specific engine application. To further enhance performance and ease the break-in process, these pistons feature:\n\n- Molybdenum Bisulphite Coating: A specialized black coating that significantly reduces friction and wear during engine operation.\n\n- Phosphate Coating Technology: Inspired by Formula One engine developments, this all-over coating increases surface hardness and provides light surface porosity. This enhances the adhesion of the Molybdenum coating, doubling its durability and extending the lifespan of the component.\n\n### Quality Assurance\n\nEvery Vertex piston undergoes a comprehensive manual and automatic quality control inspection. This ensures that every unit meets the highest industry standards for accuracy, performance, and reliability, providing riders with peace of mind during demanding riding conditions.","weightGrams":null,"fitments":[],"collections":[],"links":{"page":"https://www.2brosparts.com/products/kawasaki-kx-85-2001-2013-grade-a-4844mm-twin-ring-replica-piston","buyOneNow":"https://www.2brosparts.com/api/agent/checkout/GB/039fe1389d1f:1","basketWithThis":"https://www.2brosparts.com/api/agent/basket/GB/039fe1389d1f:1"}},"market":{"country":"GB","countryName":"United Kingdom","locale":"en-gb","currency":"GBP","exchangeRateFromGbp":1,"pricesIncludeUkVat":true,"checkoutTax":null,"delivery":[{"name":"Standard","description":"Orders £15.00–£59.99 · 2–4 business days","carrier":null,"estimatedDays":"2–4 business days","price":{"amount":4.99,"formatted":"£4.99"},"free":false,"minimumOrder":{"amount":0,"formatted":"£0.00","gbp":0},"weightGrams":null},{"name":"Standard","description":"Orders £60.00 and up · 2–4 business days","carrier":null,"estimatedDays":"2–4 business days","price":{"amount":0,"formatted":"£0.00"},"free":true,"minimumOrder":{"amount":60,"formatted":"£60.00","gbp":60},"weightGrams":null}],"storeUrl":"https://www.2brosparts.com"},"navigate":{"start":"https://www.2brosparts.com/api/agent","search":"https://www.2brosparts.com/api/agent/search/GB/{words+joined+with+plus}"},"howToBuy":{"summary":"Build a basket for the shopper and give them one checkout link.
