Description

Function of the Piston

The piston is the heart of the internal combustion engine. It moves up and down within the cylinder, compressing the air-fuel mixture and converting the explosive force of combustion into rotational energy through the connecting rod and crankshaft. Pistons must withstand extreme temperatures and pressures while maintaining a precise fit within the cylinder bore. A damaged or worn piston leads to compression loss, excessive oil consumption, knocking sounds, and reduced engine performance.
