What is the primary function of piston rings?

Piston rings have three main jobs: they seal the combustion chamber to maintain compression, they transfer heat from the piston to the cylinder wall, and they regulate the amount of oil on the cylinder wall.

Are these rings suitable for all engine builds?

These rings are designed for a 4.600 inch bore and have specific dimensions (1/16", 3/16"). Always confirm that these specifications match your engine's requirements and the type of build you are undertaking.

About this part

Product Details

These Manley piston rings are made with a 1/16 inch top ring and a 3/16 inch second ring, a common combination for many performance engine builds. The precise dimensions and material selection are crucial for creating a solid seal between the piston and the cylinder wall. This seal is what allows your engine to build compression effectively, burn fuel efficiently, and keep oil out of the combustion chamber.

Manley is known for making well-built internal engine components, and these rings are no exception. They are designed to withstand the rigors of an engine under load, helping to ensure consistent performance and durability. Proper ring tension and material hardness are key to preventing blow-by and oil consumption, which are critical for the longevity of your engine rebuild.

When you're putting an engine back together, especially if you're aiming for improved performance or rebuilding a worn-out unit, the piston rings are a vital part of the equation. Make sure you have the correct size for your bore and that they are installed properly according to your engine's service manual. Please note that these rings are not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California.
