OE 23040-26160 Piston Ring For Hyundai 1.6L G4ED 76.5mm Heat Resistant

Product characteristics

Product Introduction

The piston ring is an important component used in automotive engines, which seals the gap between the piston and cylinder to prevent high-temperature and high-pressure gas from leaking into the crankcase. Piston rings are usually made of metal materials, such as cast iron, aluminum alloy, or steel.

Product Usage

A piston ring is an expandable split ring used to provide a seal between the piston an the cylinder wall. Piston rings are commonly made from cast iron. Cast iron retains the integrity of its original shape under heat, load, and other dynamic forces.

Advantages of piston ring

• Sealing the combustion chamber so that there is minimal loss of gases to the crankcase.
• Improving heat transfer from the piston to the cylinder wall.
• Maintaining the proper quantity of the oil between the piston and the cylinder wall
• Regulating engine oil consumption by scraping oil from the cylinder walls back to the sump
