037RS001440N0 MAHLE Piston Ring Kit

MAHLE's Piston Rings (MPN: 037RS001440N0) are precision-engineered components used in the crankcase of engines. With dimensions of 31.0 x 190.0 x 190.0 mm, they provide a tight seal between the piston and cylinder wall, reducing oil consumption and heat transfer. The technical advantages of these Piston Rings include enhanced fuel efficiency, lower emissions, and extended engine life due to their precise fitment and durable construction. Dimensions are provided by the supplier and may include packaging dimensions. Piston rings are metallic, spring-driven seals installed within the grooves of a piston, sealing the combustion chamber within an internal combustion engine. These rings primarily control oil consumption, maintain compression, and transfer heat from the piston to the cylinder wall. Common ring types include compression rings, oil control rings, and scraper rings, each designed with specific cross-sectional shapes and materials for optimized performance. Materials typically consist of cast iron, ductile iron, or steel alloys, often with surface coatings like chrome, moly, or plasma spray to reduce friction and wear. Proper ring end gap and installation orientation are critical for sealing and longevity. Failure manifests as excessive oil consumption, reduced power, and increased emissions.
