Husqvarna TC/TE/SM 125 2014-2023 Grade D 53.97mm 12 Degree Twin Ring (VHM)
Vertex cast pistons are ideal for two-stroke engines due to their ability to contain higher silicon content and lower cylinder pressures compared to four-stroke engines. These pistons are gravity cast from an aluminum alloy with 18% silicon content. This silicon content decreases thermal expansion, allowing for tighter tolerances and improved power and performance while reducing susceptibility to rattling or breaking. Silicon also enhances wear characteristics and prolongs piston life by minimizing wear on the piston skirt.

FULL DESCRIPTION
Vertex Two-Stroke Piston - Grade D 53.97mm
The Vertex two-stroke piston is engineered for peak performance and reliability. Manufactured using a specialized gravity casting process, this piston utilizes an aluminum alloy with an 18% silicon content. This high-silicon composition is specifically chosen for two-stroke engines, offering distinct advantages over forged alternatives in lower cylinder pressure environments.
By incorporating high silicon levels, these pistons effectively decrease thermal expansion. This allows for tighter running tolerances, which improves engine power and performance while reducing the risk of premature wear or mechanical fatigue. The result is a piston that maintains its geometry at operating temperatures, ensuring consistent performance and a longer service life for your engine components.
