Built for Real Farm Work
Ford Dual Power tractors earned their reputation pulling everything from heavy tillage equipment to hay balers, switching between working speeds and transport ranges as conditions demanded. That versatility comes at a cost—these hardworking engines eventually show wear through oil burning and lost compression. Whether you’re pulling a chisel plow through tough ground or making long days with a baler, worn rings steal power and coat everything downwind with blue smoke.
Made to Last
Piston rings live in one of the harshest environments on your tractor—constant heat, pressure, and sliding contact with cylinder walls. This replacement ring meets Ford’s original specifications for materials and tolerances, ensuring it’ll maintain proper tension against the cylinder wall and keep oil where it belongs. The precision manufacturing means consistent sealing through temperature extremes and the daily grind of farm work.
Good to Know
This is a single ring for front cylinder applications—great for spot repairs when only one cylinder is giving trouble. Proper ring gap filing is critical for good performance, and always use a ring compressor during installation to prevent breakage. If you’re tackling multiple cylinders, the complete kit saves time and ensures all rings match. Most ring jobs benefit from having cylinders checked for wear and possibly honed, so plan accordingly when ordering.
