A piston of an internal combustion engine may include a piston shaft and a piston head. The piston head may be provided with a closed cooling channel with a cooling medium arranged therein. The piston shaft may have a spherically round cross-sectional shape, wherein a deviation from the roundness with respect to a piston diameter may be less than 0.5 per thousand.

A vehicle internal combustion piston and method of construction thereof are provided. The piston includes piston body extending along a central longitudinal axis, having an upper combustion wall forming an upper combustion surface and an undercrown surface opposite the upper combustion surface. An annular ring belt region depends from the upper combustion surface, a pair of skirt panels depend from the ring belt region, and a pair of pin bosses depend from the undercrown surface to provide laterally spaced pin bores aligned along a pin bore axis for receipt of a wrist pin. The undercrown surface forms a central undercrown surface, and a portion of either an open outer cooling gallery, a sealed outer cooling gallery, or an outer galleryless region, wherein an insulating coating is applied to at least one of the portions of the undercrown surface.

A piston, particularly a piston for use in a diesel engine, particularly a heavy duty diesel engine, is formed from a billet of metal, such that the finished piston has a mass that is at least 50%, and, more preferably, up to about 62%, of the mass of the billet. Other than finishing steps, the piston is formed with a closed gallery, without loss of mass through machining processes.

Disclosed is an internal combustion engine piston wherein at least one space is formed into which a coolant is installed. In one example, the coolant is first introduced into a coolant container and the coolant container is thereafter inserted into the at least one space in the piston. In one example, the coolant is an alkali metal consisting of sodium.
