Monosteel Pistons

The Monosteel Pistons friction-welded, single-piece construction requires no fabrication and no assembly.

Features of the Monosteel Piston include:
* A large, closed structural gallery with superior bowl rim and ring groove cooling, reducing groove distortion and improving oil control and gas sealing
* A profiled, bushingless pin bore
* A full-length skirt for stable piston dynamics, reducing risk of liner cavitation and improving ring sealing
* Process allows material flexibility with crown material options to reduce corrosion or oxidation, and/or skirt material options to improve manufacturability.

The Monosteel Pistona s inertia-welded steel forging provides strength and enhanced cooling performance for heavy-duty and industrial markets. It has a 250-bar and beyond firing pressure design capability, which meets Euro V and U.S. 10 emissions regulations, and an induction-welded design that brings lightweight steel pistons to the mid-range diesel category.
