THE RIGHT MATERIALS!!
High-grade gray cast iron is used for normal applications...Premium ductile high-strength iron for heavy-duty, newer model engines, and late model high-output engines.
THE RIGHT FACE COATING!!
Phosphate coatings are used for most intermediate groove and all compression rings on the standard Cast rings.
Premium Chrome and Plasma-Moly coatings are used for most heavy duty applications, modern engines, high-performance, and are available for almost every model of vehicle. It allows for lower friction and longer life.
Enginetech Chrome Rings are electroplated and barrel lapped for optimum seating and performance. They seat quicker/easier, and unlike 'flash chromed rings', the chrome on Enginetech's rings will last for over 100,000 miles in normal conditions.
SOPHISTICATED DESIGNS!!
Each set is engineered for the application...Example: A tapered face, torional, reverse twist design is used in the intermediate groove on most passenger cars & light duty truck sets for maximum oil control in stop-and-go driving.
SUPERIOR OIL CONTROL & METALLURGY!!
Enginetech uses more then one type of expander for the oil ring based upon ease of installation and functional requirements of each application. The tapered face assures instant seating of the intermediate groove ring.
The chrome plated steel rails are pre-lapped for instant seating and long life.
You can rely on superior fatigue resistance and uniform tension control throughout the normal life of the engine.
