Cagiva Mito 125 1990-2007 Grade A 55.96mm Twin Ring Piston
Vertex pistons are manufactured using Low-Ex silicon aluminum alloys. They are produced using gravity casting or hydraulic forging, followed by heat treatment in an automatic HT implant with solubilization by quenching in hot water. Machining is completed using the latest CNC machines and diamond tools for specific surface finishes. Each piston undergoes manual and automatic quality control. Vertex pistons are coated with Molybdenum Bisulphite for break-in and friction reduction. A new Phosphate Coating offers increased hardness, light surface porosity, and superior adhesion of the Molybdenum Coating, doubling its durability. This is a Grade A, 55.96mm twin ring piston.

FULL DESCRIPTION
Vertex Grade A 55.96mm Twin Ring Piston
Engineered for peak performance and reliability, the Vertex Grade A 55.96mm Twin Ring Piston is a high-quality replacement component designed to restore your engine to its original factory specifications. Vertex is a world leader in piston technology, utilizing advanced manufacturing processes to ensure maximum durability under the most demanding riding conditions.
Advanced Material Construction
This piston is manufactured from exotic Low-Ex (low expansion) aluminum alloys, specifically charged with silicon to provide optimal thermal stability. Using either gravity casting or hydraulic forging processes, Vertex creates a robust blank before refining the material structure through a sophisticated, automated heat treatment process. This ensures consistent strength and a perfect molecular structure throughout the part.
Precision Engineering and Coatings
Every piston is machined on state of the art CNC equipment using diamond-tipped tools to achieve precise surface finishes tailored to the requirements of the cylinder environment. To further enhance performance, this piston features dual-layer protection:
- Molybdenum Bisulphite Coating: A specialized black coating applied to aid in the break-in process and significantly reduce friction during operation.
- Phosphate Coating: Drawing inspiration from Formula One engine development, this all-over coating increases surface hardness and provides a light porosity that ensures superior adhesion of the Molybdenum layer, effectively doubling its durability.
Key Features
- Grade A 55.96mm diameter for precise cylinder clearance.
- Twin ring design for improved compression and heat transfer.
- Rigorous manual and automatic quality control checks for consistent excellence.
- Engineered to reduce internal friction and extend engine service life.
- High-tech surface treatments designed to withstand high-stress environments.
