KMP Piston Ring Set KRP1636
KRP1636 is a KMP Brand piston ring set for diesel engine overhauls.
About this part
Pistons, rings, pins and connecting rods turn combustion pressure into crankshaft rotation. Worn rings let gas blow past into the crankcase and oil past into the cylinder, which costs power and fuel and fouls the engine.
When to replace it
- Crankcase blow-by and oil mist from the breather
- High oil consumption with blue exhaust smoke
- Low or uneven compression readings
- Scored pistons or bores found on strip-down
Before you order
Gap new rings in the bore before fitting and stagger the gaps around the piston as the engine maker specifies.
If the old part has no readable number, send us a clear photo with the engine or alternator nameplate and we will identify it before you buy.
Questions
Does STD mean standard size?
Yes. STD parts suit an engine at original dimensions; oversize or undersize parts suit a machined bore or reground crank.
