Chrome faced rings are still a good choice for abrasive environments like dirt tracks and work best with cast iron blocks and cylinder liners.
Chrome has more resistance to scuffing and scoring than cast iron but somewhat less than moly.

Chrome steel piston ring sets.
Chrome ring sets are identified with a c prefix example.
Chrome rings don t work well with chrome plated bores or hard faced cylinder bore liners such as those coated with nickel carbide coatings.

The piston rings used in the marine engines should be harder than the liner material in which they are used.
Chrome plated piston rings must not be installed in chrome plated cylinder liners.
Piston rings chrome 4 000 in.
To provide additional strength to the piston rings some materials like chromium molybdenum vanadium titanium nickel and copper are added to them.
Plating of piston rings.
Find piston rings with 5 64 in.
Ring coating also has good oil absorbing properties.
The rate of wear in the cylinder bore can be considerably reduced by chromium plating the top ring rather than the bore.
Chrome s extreme density and hardness resists the impingement of dirt into the face of the ring which accelerates cylinder wear and actually contributes to the exhaust gases carrying some of the airborne contaminant out through the exhaust system.
They soak up some oil thus improving ring lubrication.
Chrome plating is one of the most common methods of surface.
These ring sets have a top compression ring that is chrome plated and lapped for resistance to wear and scuffing and faster seating.
With the most comprehensive line of piston rings compression rings and oil rings in the world we have a piston ring for practically any application racing automotive heavy duty transportation agriculture industrial small engine and more.
Number of compression rings used on each piston is determined by the type of engine and its design.
Chrome plated mild steel piston rings are used in the top compression ring groove.
