A professional ring set for one piston, intended for Perkins AK engine rebuilds. The set includes three key rings: a compression ring, a scraper ring, and an oil control ring. Their job is to ensure a perfect seal in the combustion chamber, transfer heat from the piston to the cylinder, and control the oil film layer.
Aftermarket quality product – an intelligent choice combining excellent quality with an attractive price.

Replacing piston rings is a key part of an engine overhaul. To provide the new parts with ideal working conditions, we strongly recommend:
1. Installing new filters: Clean oil and air are fundamental. Use new oil and air filters from REDX to prevent contaminants from entering the cylinder.
2. Using fresh oil: After the rebuild, fill the engine with new, high-quality HYPTRON oil to ensure optimal lubrication and break-in of the new components.
Piston rings are one of the hardest working components in an engine. Worn rings lead to a loss of compression, which is a direct cause of power loss and costly failures.
An engine rebuild is necessary if you observe the following symptoms:
✓ Bring Your Engine Back to Life: The Smart Choice with GX-AFTER
An engine overhaul is a serious investment. The GX-AFTER brand ensures you receive a product with precise dimensions, made from the right materials to restore your engine's factory compression and efficiency. It is a smart choice that guarantees reliability at a reasonable price.
Has your engine lost compression and is burning oil? Don't wait for it to seize!
Continued operation on worn rings leads to damage to the cylinder liner and pistons. **Order a complete repair set today and perform the overhaul before it's too late.**
The price is for one complete set of rings for one piston. To overhaul an entire 4-cylinder engine, you will need 4 such sets.
2. Do I need to hone the cylinder when replacing the rings?Yes, it is absolutely recommended. The honing process creates a specific cross-hatch pattern on the cylinder wall, which is essential for the proper break-in of new rings and for maintaining the oil film.
3. Do these rings fit a naturally aspirated engine (without a turbo)?No, this set is specifically for the turbocharged Perkins AK engine. Rings in naturally aspirated engines have a different design (especially the top ring) and different part numbers.
