HONDA CR 125 2004 GRADE D 53.95mm SINGLE RING REPLICA PISTON
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, followed by heat treatment in an automatic HT implant with solubilization by quench in hot water. Machining is completed using CNC machines and diamond tools to achieve specific surface finishes. Every Vertex piston undergoes 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 offers increased hardness and surface porosity for superior adhesion and durability. Replica piston, single ring, 53.95mm bore.

FULL DESCRIPTION
Vertex Grade D 53.95mm Single Ring Replica Piston
Engineered for precision and reliability, the Vertex Grade D 53.95mm Single Ring Replica Piston is designed to restore engine performance to original factory specifications. Vertex is a world leader in piston manufacturing, utilizing advanced materials and state of the art production techniques to ensure superior durability and function in high performance two stroke engines.
Advanced Manufacturing Technology
Each piston is crafted from exotic Low-Ex silicon-charged aluminium alloys. Depending on the specific application, these alloys contain 12 percent, 18 percent, or 21 percent silicon to manage thermal expansion effectively. These components undergo either gravity casting or hydraulic forging processes, followed by a sophisticated heat treatment in an automated implant with hot water quenching to refine the material structure for maximum strength.
Precision Machining and Quality Control
Vertex utilizes the latest CNC machining and diamond tooling to ensure exact tolerances and specific surface finishes tailored to the requirements of the engine. Every piston undergoes rigorous manual and automatic quality control inspections to guarantee that only the highest quality components reach your engine.
Enhanced Coatings for Performance and Longevity
To ensure smooth operation and long term reliability, these pistons feature specialized surface treatments:
- Molybdenum Bisulphite Coating: A high performance black coating that aids in the critical piston break in period while reducing friction during high RPM operation.
- Phosphate Coating: Drawing from Formula One engine development, this coating provides a slight increase in surface hardness and introduces light surface porosity. This serves to improve the adhesion of the Molybdenum coating, effectively doubling its durability for extended service life.
