NEW PISTON LINE

HIGH PERFORMANCE

2- and 4-stroke cast and forged pistons

For over 10 years now, ATHENA has been developing and manufacturing cylinder kits for 2- and 4-stroke off-road motorcycles. In collaboration with the world’s top motocross racing teams, ATHENA has now designed a new line of racing pistons –

HIGH PERFORMANCE.

ATHENA offers a wide selection of 2-stroke and 4-stroke racing forged and cast pistons, which are specifically tailored to all off-road motorcycles (MX, Enduro, and ATV). They are manufactured according to the latest technological standards and the highest industrial requirements. The unique “Smart Can” packaging, consisting of a resealable metal can, can either be used as a storage container or recycled.

All ATHENA cast and forged pistons are made of an aluminum alloy with a perfectly balanced composition of nickel, copper, and silicon. By using the finest raw materials in combination with the most advanced design and manufacturing methods, ATHENA high-performance pistons impress with their extremely light weight and high durability. This results in improved engine performance and a longer engine lifespan.

4-Stroke HIGH PERFORMANCE

Forged piston

The 4-stroke HIGH PERFORMANCE forged pistons are developed, designed, and manufactured entirely in-house at ATHENA. To guarantee maximum piston performance, ATHENA piston designs were extensively tested in advance both on the test bench and on the racetrack. The goal was also to meet ATHENA’s own high standards for durability.

Particular importance was placed on the selection of compression rings and oil scraper rings. Taking into account the tangential loads and the tangential profiles, these were selected in such a way that, on the one hand, excellent sealing properties are achieved and the “blow-by” effect (escape of combustion gases into the crankcase) is prevented, and on the other hand, no loss of sliding properties is incurred. The result is a significant increase in performance combined with longer service life for the piston and cylinder.

Details

	Hardened stiffening bridges To increase overall strength, ATHENA HIGH PERFORMANCE pistons feature hardened stiffening bridges manufactured to tight tolerances. This technology results in more robust pistons that can better withstand increased engine power with only a slight increase in weight.
	Piston pin lubrication To improve piston pin lubrication, ATHENA pistons feature special lubrication grooves that allow oil to accumulate around the piston pin bore. This results in reduced friction, lower temperatures, and a lower risk of overheating and/or piston seizure.
	Oil lubrication groove ATHENA’s HIGH PERFORMANCE pistons feature an oil lubrication groove between the first and second sealing rings. This groove allows lubricating oil to accumulate, thereby stabilizing the pressure between the piston rings and preventing the “blow-by” effect. The improved lubrication also enhances efficiency, prevents pressure losses, and ensures consistent engine power output.
