Gradient Design: The piston crown features a denser alloy layer with silicon particles, acting like an insulating vest.

 

Microstructure: A special casting process creates a honeycomb lattice, resulting in a thermal expansion coefficient 40% lower than ordinary aluminum.

 

Surface Treatment: The anodized film acts like a ceramic coating, reducing friction and resisting corrosion.
