A brand new set of 8 standard size MAHLE pistons with included factory installed rings.
Why waste money on some no-name Asian knock-off brand piston when you can have real MAHLE OEM quality for near the same price?
Fits 2010-2016 LML Duramax diesel engines with chassis VIN code '8' ('8' as 8th character in VIN#).
This is a complete set of 8 pistons with premium MAHLE rings pre-installed, including wrist pins and pin clips.
MAHLE pistons feature: 1.
Ni-resist top grooves to control groove wear.
2.
Balanced set of 8 for smooth engine operation.
3.
Eutectic aluminum piston material is chosen because it bonds better with the ring land or ring groove inserts used to strengthen and better support the piston.
MAHLE piston pins: 1.
High strength steel.
2.
Case hardened.
MAHLE piston rings: 1.
All three rings that MAHLE/CLEVITE uses on their aftermarket loaded pistons are truly unique and are without a doubt, these ring-sets the absolute best in the business.
The top rings are high strength steel with high velocity Moly impregnation.
They are an ideal mix of metals because the steel provides superior durability while the Moly facing provides a hard surface that allows superior compression sealing.
4.
The second ring (middle of piston) is your second line of defense for sealing compression from the above and oil from below the piston.
The high strength steel composition of this ring is ideally suited for both of these critical purposes.
5.
The oil ring (bottom ring) is completely unique to MAHLE CLEVITE.
These rings have been improved further by adding a nitrite coating and a chrome finish.
