Vertex pistons are manufactured using Low-Ex aluminium alloys with 12%, 18%, or 21% silicon content depending on the application. Pistons are made using gravity casting or hydraulic forging, with material structure refined through a hi-tech heat treatment process. Machining is completed using the latest CNC machines and diamond tools, achieving specific surface finishes. Each Vertex piston undergoes rigorous quality control. Pistons are coated with Molybdenum Bisulphite for break-in and friction reduction. A new Phosphate Coating, following Formula One engine developments, offers increased hardness, light surface porosity, and superior adhesion qualities, extending coating durability. This piston is 55.95mm with a single ring.

FULL DESCRIPTION
Vertex Grade B Single Ring Piston
Engineered for precision and performance, the Vertex Grade B single ring piston is designed to meet the rigorous demands of high-output engines. Using advanced manufacturing techniques, Vertex provides a reliable component that balances strength, durability, and weight efficiency.
Advanced Material and Manufacturing
Vertex pistons are crafted from specialized low expansion (Low-Ex) aluminum alloys, utilizing silicon contents ranging from 12% to 21% tailored to the specific application. These blanks are created through gravity casting or hydraulic forging processes, followed by a sophisticated heat treatment that uses automated solubilization and hot water quenching to refine the material structure.
Precision Machining and Quality Control
Each piston is machined using state-of-the-art CNC technology and diamond tooling. This ensures precise dimensions and a specific surface finish optimized for the application. To guarantee consistent performance, every unit undergoes comprehensive manual and automatic quality control inspections.
Enhanced Coating Technology
To maximize service life and reduce operational friction, these pistons feature advanced coating systems:
- Molybdenum Bisulphite Coating: A specialized black coating that assists during the critical engine break-in period and reduces friction within the cylinder.
- Phosphate Coating: Drawing from Formula One engine developments, the addition of a phosphate coating provides increased surface hardness. Its light porosity improves the adhesion of the molybdenum coating, effectively doubling its durability.
