Hastings +0.040" Oversize Piston Rings Harley Shovelhead

Enhance your engine's performance and longevity with the Hastings +0.040" oversize piston rings, specifically engineered for Harley Shovelhead 1200cc models from 1941-1986. This comprehensive set provides superior sealing and heat transfer for a robust engine rebuild.

Description

These Hastings +0.040" oversize piston rings are meticulously designed to restore peak performance to your Harley Davidson Electra Glide FL and FLH 1200 engines (1941-1986). The set includes all necessary rings for two pistons, ensuring a complete top-end overhaul. The top compression rings feature a barrel face and cast coating, crucial for efficient heat transfer between the piston and cylinder wall, while effectively controlling combustion gases to maximize power delivery to the crankshaft. This design ensures optimal energy transfer and sustained engine output. The second compression rings are engineered with a reverse torsional taper face, a sophisticated design that promotes superior side sealing. This innovative feature prevents oil from being forced under and behind the ring, significantly improving oil economy and reducing consumption. The reverse twist ring, combined with a taper-machined face, creates an effective scraping edge for precise oil management. Completing the set are the three-piece Flex Vent oil control rings. Their advanced design allows for rails with a small cross-sectional area, enhancing conformability to the cylinder bore. This system delivers uniform pressure through four steel rails and two expanders, guaranteeing positive oil control and minimizing blow-by for a cleaner, more efficient engine operation. Proudly made in the USA, these rings embody Hastings' commitment to quality and durability for demanding motorcycle applications.
