Guascor gas engine piston guide

Component selection guide

Not all Guascor engines are created equal, and this extends to their internal components. Due to variations in engine design, different Guascor engine models require specific piston kits. A piston kit that works for one model will not be compatible with another, and using the wrong part can lead to severe engine damage and a loss of reliability.

For instance, the Guascor HGM560 and SFGM560 gas engines use a complete piston kit with the part number 1915560. In contrast, the SFGLD560 engine requires a different piston kit, part number 1915210. The SFGLD series, which includes the SFGLD 180, SFGLD 240, SFGLD 360, and SFGLD 480, all utilize the 1915300 piston kit.

To ensure proper engine function, it is essential to identify the correct part number for your specific engine model. The following table helps to clarify which piston kit corresponds to which Guascor engine family.

To get the correct piston for your engine, you must provide specific information when you submit an inquiry. Providing your engine type, serial number, and year of construction is crucial for our professional team to ensure part compatibility.

The piston part number can change for a specific engine model over time due to design updates or other modifications. For example, a piston designed for a Guascor HGM560 engine is a different part from one for a SFGLD560 engine. Even within the same engine model, a newer version may require a different piston kit. The information you provide allows us to cross-reference the parts database and check for any part number supersessions, ensuring you get the exact piston that fits your application. This process prevents costly errors and ensures the reliability and performance of your engine.
