GE13 Engine Piston 12013-00Z2D 136mm Split Articulated Piston For Nissan UD Truck Quon

Product Details

Product Overview

This high-performance GE13 Engine Piston (Part Number: 12013-00Z2D) is a precision-engineered two-piece articulated piston designed specifically for heavy-duty applications. Manufactured to meet the rigorous demands of commercial diesel engines, this 136mm bore piston is a critical component for maintaining optimal compression and power output in Nissan UD Trucks and the Quon heavy-duty truck series.

The articulated design, featuring a forged steel crown and aluminum skirt, is engineered to withstand extreme combustion pressures and temperatures while reducing reciprocating mass. This specific configuration is commonly used for engines in the GE13 family, including the GE13-TD and GE13-TF models, ensuring reliable performance in demanding logistics and construction environments.

Key Features & Benefits

• Articulated Two-Piece Design: Combines a forged steel top for superior heat and pressure resistance with a lightweight aluminum skirt for reduced friction and improved fuel economy.
• Precision Engineering: Manufactured to exact OEM specifications with a 136mm bore diameter, 114mm total height, and 58mm pin diameter for a guaranteed fit.
• Advanced Ring Pack Configuration: Features a 3.0mm x 2.0mm x 2.0mm ring groove setup designed to maximize oil control and compression sealing in high-torque diesel applications.
• Enhanced Durability: The forged steel crown provides exceptional resistance to thermal fatigue and detonation, extending service intervals in severe-duty cycles.
• Direct Replacement: Identical to the original 12013-00Z2D part, ensuring seamless installation without modifications to connecting rods or cylinder blocks.
• Optimized Combustion: The 91mm combustion chamber diameter is precisely machined to maintain proper compression ratios and fuel atomization characteristics.
• Reduced Weight: At just 2 kg per piston, the hybrid construction reduces overall rotating assembly weight, improving engine response and reducing bearing loads.

FAQ

Q: How do I verify if this 12013-00Z2D piston is correct for my GE13 engine?
A: First, confirm your engine model is GE13, GE13-TD, or GE13-TF. Then measure your existing piston: the bore diameter must be 136mm (standard size), pin diameter 58mm, and total height 114mm. If your engine has been previously rebored, you may require an oversize piston. Always cross-reference your engine serial number with our compatibility chart.

Q: Can I install this articulated piston without special tools?
A: Professional installation is strongly recommended. The two-piece articulated design requires precise alignment of the forged steel crown to the aluminum skirt. You will need a piston ring compressor designed for 136mm bores, a torque wrench for connecting rod bolts, and proper assembly lubricant. Incorrect installation can lead to piston seizure or skirt damage.

Q: What is the typical service life of this piston in a heavy-duty truck application?
A: Under normal operating conditions with proper maintenance and fuel quality, this forged steel/aluminum articulated piston typically lasts 500,000 to 800,000 km in highway applications. Service life can be reduced by poor air filtration, excessive idling, or using low-quality diesel fuel. We recommend replacing piston rings at every overhaul and inspecting piston crowns for signs of thermal cracking after 400,000 km.
