Installation & Maintenance Tips

- Confirm piston ring end gaps in the bore and adjust only according to the engine builder or engine manufacturer guidelines.
- Ensure that all ring grooves, pistons, and bores are thoroughly cleaned and free from carbon before installing the new rings.
- Check ring orientation and ring position carefully during assembly and follow the recommended stagger pattern for ring gaps.
- Use the correct running in procedure with suitable engine oil after the rebuild to help the rings seat correctly.
Engine Parts Installation Warning
This piston ring set is an internal engine component and must be installed by a suitably qualified engine builder or workshop. Incorrect ring size selection, poor machining, wrong clearances, or improper installation can cause serious engine damage.
- Always verify cylinder bore size, taper, and out-of-round before choosing standard, 0.50 mm, or 1.00 mm oversize rings.
- Follow the engine manufacturer or engine builder specifications for piston to bore clearance and ring end gaps.
- Make sure all components are cleaned thoroughly and assembled in a clean environment.

Failure to follow these guidelines can lead to poor performance, premature wear, or engine failure.
