Forseti piston

Post by michael_perrett »

Does anyone know about Forseti pistons? All I have found out is that they are made in Australia.

As provided to me by Greg McClintock;

There is VERY little info out there on Forseti brand pistons, but my suspicion is that they are a product of:

ZheJiang Dongrun Casting Industry Co., Ltd.
Yongkang City
ZheJiang Province, China.

This company does the gravity casting and precision machining needed for the pistons sold in Australia under the Forseti name, markets heavily in the geographic market of Australasia, and is ISO9001 compliant, as marked on the box. They are mostly OEM knock-offs. Quality is anyone's guess. No one on the net is bragging about having used them with success.
