Vertex Replica Piston Kit Cast Aluminum

The Vertex Replica Cast Piston Kit is an OEM-replacement engine piston kit (also called a top end piston kit) for powersports engines. Each kit restores original performance and reliability in a motorcycle, ATV or dirt bike engine. The pistons are gravity cast from aluminum alloy.

Key Features:

• Gravity cast aluminum alloy (not forged) with 18% silicon content. This makes a light but strong piston.
• T-5 heat treatment: pistons go through a T-5 hardening and tempering cycle.
• Molybdenum disulfide skirt coating: the coating is intended to shorten break-in time and extend piston life.
• OEM replacement design: the replica pistons and rings are made as OEM replacements.
• Complete kit: each kit includes the piston, rings, wrist pin and circlips.

Vertex is a well-known piston maker in powersports. Its pistons are used for routine rebuilds and top end maintenance. Cast replica pistons suit stock rebuilds that need OE-style fit and function.
