VERTEX Wrist Pin
Features
Case hardened wrist pins are used with
all Vertex pistons.Nitride coated pins are normally used for high
performance four-stroke engines utilizing a bronze bushing or with
engines using a steel connecting rod without bearings. This hardened
surface is highly wear resistant and provides anti-galling properties.
Nitriding is a highly specialized surface treatment that produces a
highly wear resistant surface. The significant advantage of nitriding
is that the surface hardness is developed without quenching and the
attendant distortion problems with case hardening. Finishing
operations can be eliminated or held to a minimum.
