Upgrade your engine with the Vertex Piston Kit Cast Race 46.96mm designed for Husqvarna and KTM motorcycles. This high-performance piston kit features a lightweight aluminum alloy construction, with a gravity cast design that ensures strength and durability while reducing overall weight. The piston skirts are coated with a hi-tech Molybdenum Disulphite layer, which facilitates faster break-in and extends piston life, allowing your engine to perform at its best over time.
The kit includes a piston, rings, wrist pin, and circlips, providing a comprehensive solution for engine rebuilds or upgrades. The piston itself is engineered with heat treatment using a T-5 hardening and tempering cycle, ensuring resilience against high temperatures and stresses encountered during riding. The included four-stroke piston rings are sold as a set, designed to optimize sealing and compression, contributing to better power output.
Vertex’s cast replica pistons are made from an aluminum alloy containing 18% silicone, making them extremely light yet very strong, perfect for racing applications. For more demanding uses, forged replica pistons are available, forged from 2618 aluminum for superior strength and durability. These forged pistons also improve power and torque across the entire RPM range and increase engine displacement, providing a notable performance boost. All pistons are OEM replacements, ensuring compatibility and reliable performance.
Whether you need a standard replacement or an upgrade for higher compression or larger displacement, this kit provides the essential components to enhance your motorcycle’s engine performance. It is suitable for professionals and enthusiasts seeking a dependable, high-quality piston solution that delivers consistent power and longevity on the track or trail.
