Piston Ring Compressor 60-175mm Ratchet Type for Engines

A piston ring compressor used to compress piston rings so the piston can be fitted into the cylinder without catching or damaging the rings. The adjustable ratchet type design covers a 60-175mm range, making it useful for a variety of engine repair and rebuild work.

Used during engine assembly, servicing and rebuilds, this tool helps when installing pistons cleanly and with better control. It suits garage work, workshop use and home mechanics carrying out vehicle maintenance, small engine repairs or general engine fitting jobs where ring compression is needed before the piston is inserted into the bore.

The 75mm depth gives enough band coverage to hold the rings evenly during installation, while the ratchet adjustment allows the compressor to be tightened to suit the piston size being worked on. An included hex key is supplied for adjustment, giving an extra option when setting the tool up for the job. The adjustable size range helps cover common piston sizes, which is useful when working on different engines and helps avoid needing separate compressors for each diameter. For regular servicing or rebuild work, that makes it a straightforward tool to keep close to hand.
