A piston for an internal combustion engine comprises a piston body of aluminium or aluminium alloy and an insert of a ferrous material having a combustion bowl formed therein. The insert is surrounded by the piston body and the outer surface of the insert and the adjacent surface of the piston body are spaced apart at the crown ends thereof to form an annular gap therebetween which opens onto the crown. This insulates the piston body from the insert. |
