Öhlins uses a piston band rather than metal-to-metal contact, which is what keeps the bore intact.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eÖhlins part number 06779-05\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOriginal Öhlins service part\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat It Is\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eÖhlins publishes no separate dimension for this position, so the part number carries the identity. A scored piston face means oil bypasses the shims entirely. Twin-tube pistons have separate paths for compression and rebound, which is the whole point of the design. Rebuilding a piston means keeping the shim order, because the stack is the tuning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eOriginal Öhlins Part\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eBuying the individual part rather than a complete assembly is what makes servicing an Öhlins unit worthwhile. Öhlins supports units that are decades old, which is why the spare parts list runs to thousands of numbers. For a full rebuild, the seal kit plus the wear parts is usually the sensible order. If the unit is already apart, compare the published dimensions with the part in your hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIdentifying the Right Part\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf the unit is already open, compare the dimensions below with the part in your hand before ordering 06779-05. Where no measurement is given, the drawing position is what identifies the part. Rebuilding a piston means keeping the shim order, because the stack is the tuning. A worn piston band lets oil past the outside of the piston, which shows up as damping that has gone soft.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitting and Setup Service\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eÖhlins recommends that its units are serviced by an authorised centre. We are one: rebuild, revalve and setup all happen in our own workshop.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eBrand:\u003c\/em\u003e Öhlins\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003ePart Number:\u003c\/em\u003e 06779-05\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eCategory:\u003c\/em\u003e Pistons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eCountry of Origin:\u003c\/em\u003e Sweden\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Öhlins","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53649440538890,"sku":"06779-05","price":133.84,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7831\/0410\/files\/06779-05_7cbde174-82be-443c-85b1-e8845210ab66.png?v=1788875531","url":"https:\/\/inter-pace.com\/products\/ohlins-pds-piston-45-5-mm-06779-05","provider":"Inter-Pace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
