Hastings Manufacturing Company, LLC, a nearly 100-year-old maker of piston rings, has improved their Tough Guyê Premium Ductile series to include Napier premium ductile iron 2nd rings.

Hastings’ best selling Tough Guyê Premium Ductile racing rings have been dramatically improved with a new offering. The 2nd-groove scraper rings are now made of premium ductile iron (like the top ring) and come in a Napier hook-design profile. These two upgrades to the 2nd ring provide more strength, durability, and better oil scraping capability under high cylinder pressures and high horsepower. The Premium Ductile series is excellent for many late model and high performance or turbo-charged applications, and offers the best balance of performance and price. Tough Guy Premium Ductile is offered with Moly or chrome coatings on the top ring.

Hastings Tough Guy Racing Rings offer higher performance and more horsepower, in extreme engine applications. They utilize advances in design, materials and coatings––resulting in precise oil control, reduced friction, more efficient power generation and lighter weight. Typical applications include domestic and foreign engine rebuilds used in circle track, drag racing, sport compacts and tuners, boat racing, and racing motorcycles.
