Athena Piston Kits

Athena pistons are produced with a special high-performance aluminum alloy, with a backward-extrusion forging process. Developed and engineered in Italy by Athena R&D Department, the Athena Pistons need to pass several bench tests and track sessions to achieve the highest level of performance and reliability. Technical solutions and quality standards are the same or better than those used in the OE productions. A screen-printed Molybdenum Bisulphide special sintered coating is applied on the piston skirt. This allows to increase smoothness, performance and durability, reducing friction and noise. The piston rings, included in the kit, are state-of-the-art, made in Japan components, produced in special steel with PVD coating or chrome nitrides. They are developed to perfectly be adaptable to the cylinder walls even at low tangential load. The proven quality of Athena pistons is offered at an extremely affordable price.
