Magnum MonosteelTM Piston
Monosteel®
• First production of the Monosteel Piston for a heavy-duty commercial customer diesel engine in 2003in 2003
• The Monosteel Piston pioneered an innovative friction welding process to join the piston head and skirt, enabling optimum gallery designs for both , g p g y gefficient oil cooling and maximum strength
• Over 3.5 million Monosteel Pistons have now been produced; annual production by 2012 will exceed 1 5 illi1.5 million
• Current customers include major U.S., European and Korean commercial vehicle engine manufacturers
• Euro 6 and Tier 4 emissions regulations place a premium on enabling technologies for strength, cooling, and fuel economy improvement
