For Cast Iron (CI) piston rings, we have 4 standard sizes available in 3.000” OD:

Here is a link to a section of our catalogue on our website – piston rings:

http://www.hi-techseals.com/pdfs/sections/IPC2011_Piston_Seals.pdf Refer to page 98 for Cast Iron details. I’m not entirely sure which dimension you’re referring to as ¼” so let me know if one of these parts will work for you. Above pricing would be for low volume, higher quantity discounts would be available. Please review these details and let me know how you would like to proceed – we would be happy to send you a couple to test. Thanks for your interest in Hi-Tech Seals.

Note that prices given above are in Canadian Dollars.

Safety Seal Ring Company
Plain compression ring, Type PCS Step Cut. SAFETY SEAL uses a Class 40 Gray Iron which is a more widely used material for piston rings and seal rings. The presence of Type "A" Graphite in a Ferritic or Pearlitic Matrix provides good dimensional stability, uniform hardness, good wear resistance and lubrication retention. The lubrication retention properties of the iron permits the material to be used un-plated and even where lubrication is borderline. This material is also used as a base for plating, IE. Chrome Tin.
