Designed with precision and durability in mind, this twin ring piston provides an ideal solution for engine rebuilds, ensuring reliable power delivery and consistent performance.\n\n### Advanced Manufacturing and Material Quality\n\nVertex utilizes exotic Low-Ex (low expansion) silicon alloys, with silicon content ranging from 12% to 21% depending on the specific application. These pistons are produced using either gravity casting or hydraulic forging processes to ensure structural integrity. Each component undergoes a specialized heat treatment process in an automatic HT implant, utilizing hot water quenching to refine the material structure for maximum strength.\n\n### Precision Machining and Coating Technology\n\nEvery piston is machined on state of the art CNC equipment using diamond tools to achieve exacting tolerances and surface finishes tailored for high performance operation. To optimize functionality and longevity, these pistons feature a multi-layer coating system:\n\n \n- Molybdenum Bisulphite Coating: A specialized black coating that assists during the initial piston break in period and significantly reduces friction within the cylinder.\n \n- Phosphate Coating: Borrowed from Formula One engine technology, this all over coating provides a slight increase in surface hardness and light porosity. This improves the adhesion of the Molybdenum coating, effectively doubling its durability.\n\n### Key Features\n\n \n- 52.44mm diameter Grade A piston\n \n- Twin ring design for enhanced sealing and compression\n \n- High silicon alloy construction for thermal stability\n \n- Advanced heat treated material structure\n \n- Precision CNC machined for perfect fitment\n \n- Integrated anti-friction and durability coatings\n \n- Rigorous manual and automatic quality control testing","weightGrams":null,"fitments":[],"collections":[],"links":{"page":"https://www.2brosparts.com/products/kawasaki-kx-100-1998-2013-grade-a-5244mm-twin-ring-replica-piston","buyOneNow":null,"basketWithThis":null}},"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.
