Vertex 2-Stroke Piston Kits: OEM Equipment in KTM & HusqvarnaThe Vertex formula for delivering better on-the-track performance is simple: precision equals performance. It all begins with precision engineering based on more than 50 years of experience in the design of OEM-quality and championship-proven replacement pistons. The commitment to precision continues throughout the manufacturing process, where every Vertex piston is given an advanced Molybdenum Disulphide (MOS2) coated skirt to aid break-in and a special Nitride coating for extended durability. Once manufactured, pistons pass through a rigorous manual and automatic quality control process to ensure only the highest quality level. It all adds up to replacement pistons that deliver more power, less noise, and a longer life and that equals performance!All pistons are heat-treated with T-5 hardening and a tempering cycle.Piston skirts are coated with a hi-tech molybdenum disulphide for faster break-in time.Nitride coating for increased piston life.Piston kits include piston, rings, wrist pin, and circlips.Kits are exact OEM replacements.Two-stroke piston kits are made from gravity-cast aluminum alloy with 18% silicon content, producing an extremely light but very strong piston.High-compression pistons improve power and torque across the entire RPM range.
