With the most comprehensive line of piston rings compression rings and oil rings in the world we have a piston ring for practically any application racing automotive heavy duty transportation agriculture industrial small engine and more.
Chrome moly piston rings.
The face of the top rings in these sets are electroplated with chromium to provide a surface.
Cast iron by nature is very brittle and therefore not as strong as gas.
A great way to take full advantage of the 21st century engineering that goes into piston rings is optimize the break in ring seating procedure.
Chrome rings on the other hand require a coarser finish usually achieved with 280 grit stones before they agree to seal properly.
Moly this ring set is highly resistant to scuffing.
Recommended for all racing applications where file fitting the ring end gap will deliver maximum power.
At hastings we manufacture a bold and broad offering of piston rings one that spans thousands of applications for virtually any engine.
The first is carbon s teel which is a much more malleable material than cast iron is able to handle higher temperatures without losing temper and is better able to withstand bouts with detonation.
Chrome file fit ring sets are listed by bore diameter and list available over sizes.
According to joe moriarty of tse racing engines greenland nh about the only applications.
Prior to the advent of moly chrome plated top rings enjoyed widespread use in high performance engines.
This goes way beyond just choosing the right break in oil although that s an excellent start.
