Description
Overview:
This Engine Piston is a Genuine Kawasaki part for the FJ180V engine, supplied under OEM number 130012175. Made from a high-strength aluminium alloy, it is precision machined to maintain correct clearances, compression, and oil control within the cylinder. The piston transfers combustion force to the connecting rod, so its condition directly affects starting, power, and fuel efficiency. Intended for garden and light construction machinery powered by the Kawasaki FJ180V, it is suitable for equipment such as professional lawn mowers, scarifiers, pressure washers, compactors, and pumps. As a direct replacement for worn or damaged pistons, it helps restore reliable performance when used with the correct piston rings, gudgeon pin, and circlips to the manufacturer's specifications. Genuine part quality supports long service life in demanding use.
