Description
If you’ve been hearing a light ticking noise from the engine or noticed metal shavings in your oil, a worn or broken piston snap ring could be the culprit. These small but critical rings keep the wrist pin locked in place inside the piston, and when they fail, they can cause serious engine damage. This replacement snap ring gets your diesel engine back to running smooth and quiet like it should.
What You’re Getting
- Precision-made snap ring that locks the wrist pin securely in the piston
- Quality spring steel that maintains proper tension through thousands of engine cycles
- Exact OEM dimensions for proper fit and reliable operation
- Built to handle the high compression and heat of modern diesel engines
Built for Real Farm Work
This snap ring fits the engines in New Holland T5, T6, and T7 series tractors—the workhorses that power everything from hay equipment and planters to heavy tillage tools. Whether you’re running a T5 utility tractor on a mower or operating a bigger T7 pulling a disc, this engine is what provides the reliable power to get through long days in the field.
Made to Last
Engine components take a beating from constant heat, pressure, and vibration. This snap ring is manufactured from quality spring steel with the proper heat treatment to maintain its grip on the wrist pin through years of operation. It won’t lose tension or snap under the stress of high-RPM field work.
Good to Know
This is an internal engine component that requires removing the piston from the cylinder to access—definitely a job for someone experienced with engine rebuilds or best left to a qualified shop. If you’re doing a complete engine rebuild, it’s smart to replace all the snap rings since they’re inexpensive insurance against future problems. Always check the wrist pin bore for wear while you’ve got things apart.
