High grade AC8A with copper content of 1.65% |
Substandard ADC12 with copper content of 0.5-0.8% which is below international standards |
We use fresh raw material composition engineered to reduce ductility and corrosion resistance. More ductility,i.e. =1%, leads to versatility and higher performance at lower cost |

We manufacture and market a wide array of engineered pistons, piston pins, piston rings and circlips for the automotive markets.Extremely skilled 160 team members manage our modern R&D centre,which consists of three different departments: technical, development and mould making department. We produce complex cylindrical shaped and special shaped pin holes. Using the advanced mould processing equipment, we manufacture all kinds of casting, die-casting and forging die moulds with short production cycle, high production efficiency and stable quality. We offer graphite coating, tin plating and oxidation applied to piston skirts that act as a ‘self-clearing’ buffer between pistons and cylinder bores. As the pistons cycle, the coating wears in and fills incidental cylinder skirt/bore clearances. This creates an oil film layer for improved piston durability and engine output. For tins, the plating is relatively thick, giving tight tolerances and durability apart from the perfect exterior; this quality lining lends benefits to many more aspects. A coating offers reliable lasting protection on high performance applications. This coating is popular on most of the motorcycle builds. An excellent coating can protect this vital part and allows better combustion, less heat and friction, and valuable part protection.
In piston kit, we offer different types of finish – tin finish, regular shine finish and graphite coating.Apart from giving the spare part, the perfect appearance, a good finishing helps to create a smoother surface for higher overall functioning of a motorcycle engine.
