Motorcycle Spare Parts only sell genuine spare parts made by each manufacturer. The Upper Thrust Ring part has been manufactured by Piaggio and is brand new and dispatched in its original packaging.
The upper thrust ring, also known as part number 65069345, is an integral piece in a variety of automotive brands including Aprilia, Derbi, Moto Guzzi, Vespa, Gilera, and Piaggio. Being a fundamental part of the automotive structure, the upper thrust ring plays a critical role in the overall function and maneuverability of these vehicles.
The upper thrust ring is primarily designed to maintain the positioning of specific cylindrical components within the vehicle engine, most notably the pistons. The functionality of the thrust rings does extend beyond this, with many acting as buffer components to help absorb the impact of various forces generated during the vehicle's operation, so as to prevent direct damage to the piston and other critical engine parts.
Constructed from durable materials designed specifically to withstand wear and tear, upper thrust rings are crucial for maintaining the overall mechanical integrity of the components they secure, and the entire vehicle. In the majority of motor vehicles, including the aforementioned brands, these parts are located within the engine assembly and work in constant unison with the crankshaft and piston assembly.
When functioning correctly, the upper thrust ring aids in reducing the effects of axial thrust and friction, allowing the motors of these vehicles to work both effectively and efficiently for longer periods of operation, while reducing the need for excessive maintenance and repairs.
The upper thrust ring (manufacturer part number 65069345) is a small but fundamentally important part that contributes significantly to the smooth running and overall longevity of Aprilia, Derbi, Moto Guzzi, Vespa, Gilera, and Piaggio vehicles. Its primary function lies in maintaining optimal positioning of the piston within the engine, as well as absorbing and distributing the impact of various forces during the vehicle's operation, ensuring the preservation and prolongation of an engine's lifetime.
