Piston 14,5 steel teeth

Piston with steel comb 14.5 teeth

A new generation of the popular piston with a steel comb. The piston body is made of Polyamide PA6.6 with 30% carbon fiber and 5% Molybdenum. We have strengthened and modified the plastic body so that it has a better service life.

The steel comb is newly made of material 14260 (54SiCr6) which is spring steel. Before machining, the steel is annealed to remove internal stress, then the entire comb is milled on a CNC machining center and subsequently tempered by hardening. The hardness of the teeth is 52 - 54HRC, which is ideal because the teeth are hard, but at the same time flexible and not brittle.

Due to the Molybdenum additive used in the plastic, the plastic body of the piston is not lubricated, but is used dry. Most plastics degrade after contamination with oil or Vaseline, reducing strength.

We recommend applying Vaseline only to the steel comb.

The pistons can be used on the strongest springs
