KAWASAKI KXF 250 2020 GRADE A 77.95mm HIGH COMPRESSION 14.9:1
Vertex pistons are manufactured using Low-Ex aluminium alloys with 12%, 18%, or 21% silicon, depending on the application. Pistons are produced using gravity cast or hydraulic forging, followed by a high-tech heat treatment process in an automatic HT implant with solubilization by quench in hot water. Machining is performed using the latest CNC machines and software with diamond tools, achieving specific surface finishes. Each Vertex piston undergoes rigorous manual and automatic quality control. Vertex pistons feature a Molybdenum Bisulphite black coating for break-in and friction reduction. A new, all-over Phosphate Coating offers increased hardness, light surface porosity, and superior adhesion qualities for the Molybdenum Coating, doubling its durability. This piston is Grade A, 77.95mm, with a 14.9:1 high compression ratio.

FULL DESCRIPTION
Vertex High Compression Piston 77.95mm
Upgrade your engine performance with the Vertex Grade A High Compression Piston. Engineered for riders who demand superior power and reliability, this piston features a 14.9:1 compression ratio, specifically designed to optimize combustion efficiency and increase overall output.
Precision Engineering and Material Quality
Vertex pistons are manufactured using exotic Low-Ex silicon-charged aluminium alloys. Depending on the specific application, these alloys contain 12%, 18%, or 21% silicon to ensure thermal stability and reduce expansion. Each piston is produced through advanced gravity casting or hydraulic forging, followed by a state of the art heat treatment process in an automatic HT implant to refine the material structure for maximum durability.
Advanced Coating Technology
To ensure longevity and smooth operation, this piston is treated with high performance coatings:
- Molybdenum Bisulphite Coating: A specialized black coating that assists during the critical break-in period and significantly reduces friction within the cylinder.
- Phosphate Coating: Drawing inspiration from Formula One engine development, this all-over coating increases surface hardness. Its light porosity provides superior adhesion for the Molybdenum layer, effectively doubling the durability of the piston coating.
