German manufacturer of engine components

Mahle is a German company headquartered in Stuttgart and one of the major suppliers to the automotive industry. The brand is especially known for pistons and cylinder components, but also makes filters, valve train parts, bearings and components for cooling and thermal management. Many car manufacturers use Mahle parts in their engines from the factory. On the performance side, Mahle Motorsport offers a range of forged pistons and related parts for tuned and built engines, based on experience from motorsport and series production.

Mahle’s key products

Forged pistons are the most sought-after item for performance builds. They are stronger than cast pistons and withstand higher pressures and temperatures in turbocharged, supercharged or nitrous engines. The pistons often come as sets with rings, wrist pins and locks, so everything matches from the start. For engine rebuilds there are piston rings, cylinder liners, bearings and gaskets. Mahle also offers oil, air, fuel and cabin filters as well as cooling system parts. See each product for engine, bore and compression ratio.

Frequently asked questions

When do I need forged pistons from Mahle?

Forged pistons are relevant when the engine is to make considerably more power than stock, for example with a bigger turbo, a supercharger or nitrous. They withstand higher cylinder pressures and temperatures than cast pistons.

Do the pistons have to match a specific bore?

Yes. Pistons come in specific diameters, and the cylinder must be bored and honed to the correct clearance. Choose the size that suits your engine, and preferably let an engine shop measure and machine the block.

How do I know if a part fits my car?

Contact us with your car’s make, model, year and preferably engine code, and we’ll help you find the right part.
