340 Piston identification. Silvolite?

Those B296 pistons are Badger replacement pistons, I used a set in a motor I built for a friend about a year ago. I picked them up at a swap meet about a year or so ago & put them on the shelf for later use.
Look at the SL mark. What's that designate?
Where did badger pistons start?
