Vertex pistons are manufactured using Low-Ex aluminium alloys with 12%, 18%, or 21% silicon content depending on the application. They are made using gravity casting or hydraulic forging, followed by heat treatment in an automatic HT implant with hot water quenching. This process refines the material structure. The pistons are machined using the latest CNC machines and software with diamond tools, achieving specific surface finishes for different applications. Each Vertex piston undergoes rigorous manual and automatic quality control. Vertex pistons are coated with a special Molybdenum Bisulphite black coating for break-in and friction reduction. A new Phosphate Coating, developed following Formula One engine advancements, offers increased hardness, light surface porosity, and superior adhesion and durability for the Molybdenum Coating. This piston is 95.97mm with a 12.9:1 high compression ratio.

FULL DESCRIPTION

High Performance Vertex Grade B Piston

Enhance your engine performance with this high-compression Vertex piston, specifically engineered for precision and durability. Manufactured using exotic Low-Ex silicon-charged aluminium alloys, this piston is designed to withstand high-stress environments while maintaining structural integrity. Through a combination of gravity casting or hydraulic forging and a state-of-the-art heat treatment process, Vertex ensures a refined material structure that meets rigorous quality standards.

The piston is machined using advanced CNC technology and diamond tools to achieve specific surface finishes tailored to your application. To optimize engine longevity and efficiency, this piston features a specialized Molybdenum Bisulphite black coating, which assists during the break-in period and actively reduces friction within the cylinder.

Additionally, this component benefits from a premium all-over Phosphate coating. Developed using technologies found in Formula One engines, this coating provides a slight increase in surface hardness and optimized surface porosity. This allows for superior adhesion of the Molybdenum coating, effectively doubling the durability of the protective finish.
