Dont know but I presume it is some sort of part number. If you know the manufacturer they can probably explain.
Are the pistons still connected to the crank as the variation in orientation of the valve cut outs would be a concern if they are.

No disconnected from the crank so they?ve turned a little. No idea who the manufacturer was as these are the only marks I can find. They look like standard compression pistons but the 1.016 suggested they may be oversize somewhere?

My pistons have the same - 'BRF +1.016' and it's at +40''
I recall posting exactly the same question on here some years ago and someone explained the meaning and essentially concluded that my engine is at +40 (which I know to be the case). Sorry, I can't recall the explanation and I'm useless with the search function!
Found it!:
0.040" x 25.4 = 1.016mm

I found very similar pistons in my engine. The code on mine was ID6 S41 +1.016.
Same style stamping and the same FRONT stamping, same flycuts and recess on the edge. No idea on what the actual code means though!
I found a AE pistons logo on the underside, and they took standard size rings.
