Description
Overview:
The Sealey Piston Ring Compressor 50mm Ø38-83mm is a genuine workshop tool for installing pistons into cylinder bores without damaging piston rings. Built from high-quality sprung steel, it uses a friction-action tension mechanism to close the band evenly around the rings. The 50mm band width (1.97 inches) provides stable coverage across common small engine ring packs, while the adjustable diameter range of 38mm to 83mm (1.5 inches to 3.27 inches) suits many garden, construction, and general small plant engines. Supplied with a steel key, it allows controlled tightening and easy release once the piston is located. Suitable for professional mechanics and DIY users alike, and marked with OEM No. MC15 for assured specification and identification as a Genuine Sealey part.
