What are KS Alusil pistons / rings made of & plated with?

I'd love to clean my pistons in my ultrasonic cleaner but I have noticed that it strips the plating of some metals, such as the Yellow Cad plated fasteners used frequently by Porsche. I know there is some exotic metallurgy involved in the Alusil cyls and pistons and rings and I don't want to harm any of them. Any suggestions or info?

Thanks
