Flywheel

FLYWHEEL

This is in cast iron, with inserted ring gear, in hardened and tempered steel, and suitably balanced.

PISTONS AND CONNECTING RODS

The connecting rods are in hardened and tempered steel, with force-fitted copper bush (1) for mating with the gudgeon pin (2) of the piston.

The floating type gudgeon pins are retained by two expansion circlips (3) which are housed in the special hollows machined on the piston hubs.

The pistons are in aluminium and silicon alloy with self-heating inserts and are subdivided into three dimensional classes.

The "OMEGA" shaped combustion chamber, which improves combustion yield, is machined on the piston crown.
