Quality you can see, power you can feel—Vertex Replica piston kits are choice replacements for precision performance. Available in 2- and 4-stroke, the Replica piston kits feature both cast and forged manufacturing processes, supplying the highest quality to meet your needs. And, Vertex offers A, B, C, and D sizes, so you can choose the proper fit for your cylinder. The difference in the sizes is 0.01mm (0.0004 in.) increments, with A being the smallest and D the biggest. Vertex Replica piston kit notes: * 2-stroke piston kits are gravity cast aluminum alloy with 18 percent silicone content, which produces an extremely light but very strong piston * 4-stroke pistons are forged from 2618 or 3032 alloys for superior strength and durability * All pistons are heat-treated with a T-5 hardening and tempering cycle * All piston skirts are treated with a high-tech molybdenum disulfide (MOS2) coating for faster break-in time and increased piston life * Standard pistons and rings are OEM replacements * Kits include piston, rings, wrist pin, and circlips

Vertex offers Big Bore piston kits for a variety of applications, including Kawasaki off-road bikes from the 1990s and up. All pistons are heat-treated with a T-5 hardening and tempering cycle, and all piston skirts are coated with a high-tech molybdenum disulphite coating for faster break-in time and increased piston life. Cast piston kits are gravity cast aluminum alloy (not forged) with 18 percent silicone content—which produces an extremely light but very strong piston. Forged pistons are forged from 2618 aluminum for superior strength and durability. Forged high-compression pistons improve power and torque across the entire RPM range. Big Bore pistons increase engine displacement, torque, and peak horsepower. Forged Replica pistons are forged OE replacements. Replica pistons and all rings are OEM replacements.

Vertex Race piston kits consist of piston, rings, wrist pin, and circlips. These pistons are made from the highest quality 2618 aluminum alloy and are perfectly suited to handle the rigors and high pressures of today's modern four-stroke engines. Plus, to aid in the break-in process and reduce wear, every Vertex piston utilizes a unique Molybdenum Disulphide (MOS2) coating on the piston skirt. What truly sets Vertex pistons apart from the competition are the unique piston profiles and compression ratios that are offered in A, B, C, and D sizes. This variation in sizing allows the piston to be perfectly sized to the cylinder for maximizing power and performance, while reducing blow-by and oil consumption. Order the piston kit designed to fit your application needs.
