JE Pistons Ring Sets 017-1/16-3/16 RINGS

JE Pistons has a long history of making top-tier engine components, especially for racing applications. This particular piston ring set, part number J880F8-4375-5, is designed to help your engine seal combustion pressure effectively, which is key to making good horsepower. They offer these rings in a wide variety of sizes and thicknesses to fit many different engines, and this set is a file-fit type, meaning you'll fine-tune the end gap yourself during installation for a precise seal.

The top ring in this set is made from ductile iron with a plasma moly coating, a well-built combination that balances strength and wear resistance. Beneath that, the second ring is iron phosphate, and the oil ring is standard tension carbon steel with chrome. This layered approach ensures a solid seal across the piston's travel. JE Pistons even offers custom services, like those used by Pro Stock and NASCAR teams, to further enhance durability and reduce friction, though this specific set is ready to go as is.

Because these are file-fit rings, you'll need to carefully measure and file the end gap to match your cylinder bore dimensions before installation. This step is crucial for optimal performance and to prevent damage. Remember, this part is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California.
