These Hastings Mfg piston rings are specifically designed for Milwaukee-Eight V-twin engines requiring an .010 oversized fit. The moly material on the compression rings is chosen for its ability to reduce friction and minimize wear, ensuring a long-lasting and effective seal against the cylinder walls.

Common questions
How many piston rings are included in one set?
One set includes a complete three-piece ring package designed for two pistons. However, for Twin Cam 113" and Sportster 883 XL models, rings are sold per cylinder, so you would need to order two sets for one bike.
Are these piston rings compatible with Screaming Eagle pistons?
Yes, Hastings Mfg piston rings are specifically engineered to work effectively with both OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) and Screaming Eagle aftermarket pistons.
What is the main benefit of moly-coated rings?
Moly (molybdenum) coatings reduce friction between the piston ring and the cylinder wall. This leads to better wear resistance, improved sealing, and often a quicker break-in period for the engine.
