Mahle 41286CP Engine Piston Ring Set

Overview

Mahle 41286CP is a premium engine piston ring set built for standard bore applications with OE-focused materials and coatings. It is engineered for drivers and rebuilders who need precise ring dimensions, controlled oil use, and consistent sealing performance.

Compatible with a wide range of Chrysler, Dodge, and Plymouth applications, including Dodge Dakota, Dodge Caravan, and Chrysler LeBaron. Part number 41286CP appears throughout the catalog for this standard-size piston ring set.

Key Features

• Standard bore diameter of 3.445 inches for matched engine rebuild applications.
• Plasma-moly face coating helps reduce friction at the ring face.
• Top and second rings use carbon steel for stable ring control.
• Stainless steel oil ring assembly with shallow groove design.
• Premium item grade for rebuilds that follow OE-style specifications.

Product Details

Mahle 41286CP is an engine piston ring set designed around OE requirements for friction reduction, lower oil consumption, and longer service life. The ring package uses a plasma-moly coated face, carbon steel top and second rings, and a stainless steel oil ring assembly to support sealing and oil control in standard bore engines. The 1.50 mm top and second ring thicknesses and 4.00 mm oil ring assembly thickness reflect the dimensional setup used in the listed applications. This part cross-references Hastings Piston Rings (e.g., 2M4222, 2M5652) for the same application.

For Chrysler, Dodge, and Plymouth engines, 41286CP is a fitment-specific choice for rebuild work where ring material, coating, and groove style must match the original engine configuration. The Mahle 41286CP designation is useful when verifying the correct piston ring set against the engine’s standard bore and ring stack requirements.

Used For

• Restoring cylinder sealing after engine wear.
• Reducing oil consumption caused by worn rings.
• Improving compression retention in rebuilds.
• Replacing rings with incorrect thickness or groove style.
• Addressing friction-related wear in standard bore engines.

Installation Notes

Verify bore diameter, ring thickness, and groove style before assembly. Confirm the engine’s standard bore specification and compare the ring stack to the listed dimensions before installation. Professional engine assembly practices are recommended for ring end-gap measurement and cylinder preparation.

Quality Assurance

Mahle piston rings are developed to OE requirements and focus on friction control, oil management, and service life. Part number 41286CP is a premium-grade ring set intended for applications that match the listed fitment and dimensional specifications.
