Designed as a cast OE replacement piston, this kit provides a practical solution for engine rebuilding and routine top-end service while maintaining dependable fit and performance. The piston is manufactured from gravity-cast aluminum alloy with 18% silicone content for a durable, application-focused design.\u003cbr\u003eThe piston receives a T-5 heat-treating cycle that combines hardening and tempering to support strength and service life under demanding operating conditions. Its skirt features a high-tech molybdenum disulfide coating that helps reduce friction during initial operation, promotes faster break-in, and contributes to increased piston life when properly installed and maintained.\u003cbr\u003eThe Vertex VTK22795B kit includes the essential components needed for a complete top-end installation, including the piston, piston rings, wrist pins, circlips, top-end gaskets, and wrist pin bearing.
