Product Overview

Manley pistons are machined of high strength 2618 material. Each design is lightweight yet robust enough to deliver long service life. Perfect ring groove to skirt squareness is achieved through our unique "one fixturing" manufacturing method that assures maximum horsepower. Round wire locks, tool steel wrist pins, and rings are included with every set at no additional charge.

*Forging*
• 2618 alloy for maximum high temperature strength and fatigue resistance.

*Attributes*
• "Contour forgings" provide the optimum balance between strength and weight with no grain-interrupting internal milling.
• Proprietary multi-step top ring groove machining process assures optimum control of the groove's size, geometry, flatness, and finish.
• All final turning is performed in one fixturing resulting in complete squareness of rings to the cylinder wall.
• Federal Form-Scan gauging validates ideal skirt indexing to pinhole and skirt-to-skirt polarity.
• Value - added features such as a pressure balance groove included in all series.
• Precise pinhole machining results in an exact compression distance as well as precise lock ring groove spacing, size, and concentricity.

Manley Sport Compact Platinum series pistons come complete with pistons, rings, pins, and locks

• Cam and Barrel Profiles: Our pistons boast cam and barrel (skirt) profiles that generate substantial power while being gentle on cylinder walls.
• Chrome Moly Wrist Pins: Premium Chrome Moly wrist pins come standard with our Standard Series Pistons. For select SKUs, we offer wrist pin upgrades to 9310 and Turbo Tuff/DLC alloys, providing additional durability.
• Exacting Ring Lands and Grooves: We adhere to strict standards for piston ring lands and grooves, resulting in enhanced ring seal and more power.
• Unique Fixturing: Manley's unique fixturing allows for skirt turning and ring groove machining in a single operation, ensuring ultimate ring groove to skirt squareness.

Note for Pistons, Rings, Rotors, Rods and engine internals

Unless otherwise specified, some brands supply brake rotors, pistons, strut mounts, rods and rings separately. In some cases, titles may indicate plural, or 'set' - eg the term “ring set” often refers to the rings for a single piston only. If you’re unsure about what’s included with this product, please contact our team for clarification.
