KAWASAKI KXF 450 2013-2014 & 2016-2018 GRADE C 95.98mm HIGH COMPRESSION 13.6:1
Vertex pistons are manufactured using Low-Ex aluminum alloys with 12%, 18%, or 21% silicon depending on the application. Pistons are made using gravity casting or hydraulic forging, then refined through a high-tech heat treatment process. Machining is done with the latest CNC machines and diamond tools to achieve specific surface finishes. Each piston undergoes rigorous quality control. Vertex pistons feature a Molybdenum Bisulphite black coating for break-in and friction reduction. A new Phosphate Coating, similar to that used in Formula One, increases hardness and surface porosity for superior Molybdenum Coating adhesion and durability. This piston is Grade C, has a 95.98mm bore, and a 13.6:1 compression ratio.

FULL DESCRIPTION
Vertex High Compression Piston - 95.98mm Grade C
Enhance the performance of your engine with the Vertex High Compression Piston. Engineered for reliability and power, this piston features a 13.6:1 compression ratio and is manufactured to exact tolerances to ensure peak performance for your machine.
Vertex utilizes advanced Low-Ex silicon-charged aluminium alloys, chosen for their superior thermal stability and durability. Through a precision gravity casting or hydraulic forging process, the structural integrity of the metal is refined via high-tech heat treatment, resulting in a robust component capable of handling demanding conditions.
Every piston is machined using state-of-the-art CNC technology and diamond tooling to achieve precise surface finishes tailored for high-performance applications. The inclusion of a Molybdenum Bisulphite coating assists during the break-in period and reduces internal friction, while the innovative phosphate coating provides enhanced adhesion and increased durability.
