Vertex piston segment 0.8mm Tmkart

The vertex piston segment of a thickness of 0.8 mm is an indispensable precision piece for the maintenance and performance of your TM KART high engine. Designed by the prestigious Vertex brand, this fine segment makes it possible to significantly reduce the frictions against the cylinder shirt while ensuring optimum compression tightness.

Ideal for competition, it promotes more fierce climbs and a better engine performance at each track.

Main features:

• Product: Piston segment

• Brand: Vertex

• Thickness: 0.8 mm

• Compatibility: TM KART motor pistons and cylinders (depending on compatible piston pattern)

• Availability: In stock on Magickart.eu

The history and usefulness of the product (track side)

In a high-performance 125cc karting engine, the segment is the part that encrypts permanent friction against the cylinder wall. Passing on a fine thickness of 0.8 mm allows to release the engine of losses by pumping and friction, ensuring increased vivacity to acceleration and optimized chronos on all types of circuits.

The mounting tuto (step by step)

To install your new vertex segment safely:

• Cleaning: Remove the old segment and thoroughly clean the piston groove to eliminate any trace of calamine.

• Control of the game to the cup: Insert the 0.8 mm segment flat into the cylinder and check its cup game with a set of shims.

• Tracking & installation: Gently position the segment on the piston by ensuring that its opening is perfectly binding on the locking pin located in the groove.

• Lubrication: Generously hose the segment and inside the cylinder before engaging the piston when reassembling the high engine.

Michel's Tip (Paddock Expert Council)

"A segment end of 0.8 mm requires special care when mounting for not twisting, and requires absolute respect of the heating time before going to pure pure performance on the track. Always check your game at each change of piston! "

FAQ SEO (Frequently Asked Questions)

• Q: What is the advantage of a segment of 0.8 mm?
