Thread: Which cast iron to choose for cylinder ,piston and rings .

Great minds think alike Ian ! Cars yield a lot of quality metal such as drive shafts and shock absorber shaft and tubing as well as aluminium for melting.

I work on full size vintage ic engines and grey cast iron was used almost exclusively for cylinders, pistons and rings. The best material I have found for making new piston rings is unvented car brake discs. I made 5.5 inch rings for a 100 year old petrol engine which has just completed 1000 trouble free miles.
