Product Features

• Structure: Forged from high-strength aluminum alloy, with a fully machined crown, reinforced skirt, and precision-bored pin hole. The crown features an optimized combustion chamber design, and the skirt is coated with a low-friction material to reduce wear.

• Performance: Withstands extreme combustion pressures and temperatures, while the aluminum alloy construction provides rapid heat dissipation. The precision machining ensures a tight fit with the cylinder liner, minimizing oil consumption and maximizing compression efficiency.

• Design: Directly interchangeable with original equipment pistons, ensuring a perfect fit with the piston pin, rings, and cylinder liner for optimal engine performance.

Core Function

1. Force Conversion: Converts the pressure from fuel combustion into linear motion, which is then transferred via the piston pin and connecting rod to rotate the crankshaft.

2. Heat Dissipation: Transfers heat from the combustion chamber to the cylinder liner and engine coolant, preventing overheating.

3. Sealing: Works with piston rings to maintain a tight seal in the cylinder, ensuring maximum compression pressure and preventing gas leakage.A

Frequently Asked Questions — Piston D05-101-44 SHANGCHAI

What engines is the Piston D05-101-44 compatible with?

The D05-101-44 piston is specifically manufactured for SHANGCHAI D-series diesel engines, including the SC8D, SC9D, and SC7H series commonly found in SHACMAN, FAW, DONGFENG, and FOTON heavy trucks. Always cross-reference your engine serial number to confirm fitment before ordering.

Does this piston come with rings and pin included?

The standard SKU for Piston D05-101-44 ships as the piston body only. Piston rings, wrist pins, and circlips are available as separate line items or as a bundled piston kit — specify your preference when requesting a quote.

What is the expected service life of this piston under normal operating conditions?

Under standard maintenance intervals and proper engine tuning, the D05-101-44 piston typically delivers 300,000–500,000 km of reliable service in highway applications. Severe-duty applications (mining, construction) may see replacement intervals closer to 150,000–250,000 km depending on dust filtration and cooling system maintenance.

How does METTLEAD ensure dimensional accuracy for the Piston D05-101-44?

Each production batch undergoes CNC coordinate measuring machine (CMM) inspection for bore diameter, compression height, pin bore concentricity, and ring groove width. Statistical process control (SPC) data is maintained and available upon request for bulk procurement customers.

Can I order a sample of the Piston D05-101-44 before committing to volume?

Yes. METTLEAD supports sample orders so your engineering team can verify fitment, material quality, and surface finish before scaling up. Sample lead time is typically 3–5 business days from order confirmation.
