This GP-style racing piston uses gravity-cast aluminum alloy with 18% silicone content to provide a lightweight, durable foundation for high-performance two-stroke engine use. Its single compression-ring design supports efficient operation and is suited to applications where reduced friction and responsive performance are priorities.\u003cbr\u003eThe piston is heat-treated using a T-5 hardening and tempering cycle to improve strength and durability under demanding operating conditions. The piston skirt features a high-tech molybdenum disulfide coating that helps promote faster break-in and contributes to extended piston life. This coating is designed to reduce friction during initial operation while supporting smooth movement within the cylinder.\u003cbr\u003eThe Vertex 24243A kit includes the essential components needed for piston replacement, including the piston, compression ring, wrist pin and circlips. It is a practical choice for maintaining engine performance during rebuilds or scheduled service. Verify vehicle, engine and year compatibility before installation to ensure the correct fit and proper application.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eBrand: Vertex\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003ePart Number: 24243A\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eApplication: Select GasGas, Husqvarna and KTM models\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003ePiston Diameter: 53.94 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eConstruction: Gravity-cast aluminum alloy with 18% silicone content\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003ePiston Design: GP-style racing piston with one compression ring\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eHeat Treatment: T-5 hardening and tempering cycle\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eSkirt Coating: Molybdenum disulfide coating for faster break-in and increased piston life\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eKit Contents: Piston, compression ring, wrist pin and circlips\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eShips from Parts Unlimited.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vertex","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":60117693890846,"sku":"24243A","price":171.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1091\/7884\/7518\/files\/411461.png?v=1791109412","url":"https:\/\/shoplepier.com\/products\/vertex-24243a-gp-style-piston-kit-53-94-mm-for-gasgas-husqvarna-and-ktm","provider":"LEPIER POWERSPORTS","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
