Precision-engineered as a direct factory OE replacement, this 46.96mm piston is designed for a wide range of KTM, Husqvarna, and Gas Gas 85cc platforms manufactured between 2003 and 2024.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVertex cast pistons are constructed from an 18% silicone-content gravity-cast aluminum alloy. This advanced metallurgy significantly reduces thermal expansion, ensuring the piston maintains its exact shape under the intense heat cycles of 2-stroke competition. Combined with a factory-applied Molybdenum Disulphite (MoS2) skirt coating, this kit guarantees accelerated break-in times, reduced internal friction, and an extended top-end lifespan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTop Features: Vertex Piston Kit\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDirect OE Replacement:\u003c\/strong\u003e Designed to look, fit, and perform exactly like original factory equipment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHigh-Silicone Content:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18% silicone content stabilizes the piston structure, preventing distortion under extreme thermal stress.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMoly-Coated Skirt:\u003c\/strong\u003e High-tech Molybdenum Disulphite coating minimizes friction to safeguard against scuffing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eT-5 Heat Treatment:\u003c\/strong\u003e Undergoes a full hardening and tempering cycle to elevate overall component durability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eComplete Setup:\u003c\/strong\u003e Includes the precision-ground piston, premium piston rings, wrist pin, and replacement circlips.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFitment List\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse; border: 1px solid #ddd; font-family: sans-serif;\"\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; text-align: left;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eYear Range\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eVehicle Model Series\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e2003-2024\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eKTM 85 SX (17\/14 \u0026amp; Standard)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e2014-2024\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eHusqvarna TC85 (17\/14 \u0026amp; 19\/16)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e2022-2024\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eGas Gas MC 85 (17\/14 \u0026amp; 19\/16)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Is this piston suitable for my cylinder?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: This 46.96mm piston is an \"A\" or standard size replica meant for a healthy, factory-spec 47.00mm bore cylinder.
