KAWASAKI KX 80(79CC) 1992-1999 GRADE D 46.96mm TWIN RING PISTON
Vertex pistons are manufactured using Low-Ex aluminium alloys with 12%, 18%, or 21% silicon content depending on the application. They are produced using gravity casting or hydraulic forging and refined through a hi-tech heat treatment process with solubilization by quench in hot water. Machining is completed using the latest CNC machines and software with diamond tools to achieve specific surface finishes. Every Vertex piston undergoes a rigorous manual and automatic quality control process. Vertex pistons are coated with a special Molybdenum Bisulphite black coating for break-in and friction reduction. A new, all-over Phosphate Coating has also been introduced, offering increased hardness, light surface porosity, and superior adhesion qualities of the Molybdenum Coating, extending durability. This piston has a bore size of 46.96mm and includes twin rings.

FULL DESCRIPTION
High-Performance Vertex Twin Ring Piston - Grade D
Upgrade your engine reliability and performance with this premium Vertex twin ring piston. Engineered for precision and longevity, this Grade D piston features a 46.96mm diameter, specifically designed to meet the rigorous demands of two-stroke engine applications.
Advanced Engineering and Material Quality
Vertex pistons are manufactured using exotic Low-Ex (low expansion) silicon-charged aluminium alloys. Through a sophisticated combination of gravity casting and hydraulic forging processes, the structural integrity of the metal is refined via advanced heat treatment technology. This ensures a durable, high-performance component that maintains its shape and performance under extreme thermal stress.
Precision Manufacturing
Each piston is machined using state-of-the-art CNC technology and diamond-tipped tooling to achieve precise surface finishes. Rigorous quality control measures, including both manual and automatic inspections, ensure that every piston meets the highest industry standards for reliability.
Enhanced Coatings for Superior Performance
This piston features industry-leading coating technology designed to optimize engine break-in and operational efficiency:
- Molybdenum Bisulphite Coating: A specialized black finish that significantly reduces friction and facilitates a smoother break-in process.
- Phosphate Coating: Drawing from Formula One engine development, this phosphate layer provides increased surface hardness and superior adhesion for the Molybdenum coating. This dual-coating approach extends the durability of the piston surface, significantly increasing its operational lifespan.
