Engine piston ring set for Ford and Mercury applications

This engine piston ring set, part number 4205, is built for specific Ford and Mercury engines with a 93.00 mm bore and standard oversize. It uses grey iron and steel rail materials with phosphate and chrome surface treatments for controlled wear characteristics.

Key features

  • Part number 4205 for targeted engine rebuild applications
  • Standard oversize with a 3.661 in. / 93.00 mm bore
  • Grey iron top and second rings for consistent sealing performance
  • Steel rail and stainless expander oil ring design
  • Phosphate and chrome surface treatments for ring break-in and wear control
  • Configured for six-cylinder engines

Detailed description

Part number 4205 is an engine piston ring set intended for rebuild work on select Ford and Mercury engines, including applications such as the Ford Ranger, Ford Bronco II, Ford Aerostar, Ford Mustang, Ford Pinto, Mustang II, Mercury Bobcat, and Mercury Capri. The ring package combines a grey iron top ring, a grey iron second ring, and a steel rail/stainless expander oil ring arrangement to support cylinder sealing and oil control in standard-bore engines. The phosphate-treated top and second rings and chrome-treated oil ring surfaces add a finish commonly used in engine assembly for controlled seating and wear behavior.

What this part helps address

  • Excessive oil consumption from worn piston rings
  • Low compression caused by ring wear or loss of sealing
  • Oil control issues during engine rebuilds
  • Ring replacement needs for standard-bore six-cylinder engines
  • Restoration work on older Ford and Mercury engine platforms

Installation notes and tips

Verify bore size, groove dimensions, and oversize before installation. Match the ring set to the engine specification and inspect cylinder walls, pistons, and ring lands during assembly. Proper ring end gap measurement and clean installation practices are important for sealing performance and break-in.
