This SAE Standard specifies the general characteristics of piston rings and individual dimensional criteria, which are specified as appropriate in the documents in Section 2. This document also provides a system for coding, designation, and marking of piston rings. This document applies to the manufacture of piston rings up to and including 200 mm diameter for reciprocating internal combustion engines. It also applies to piston rings for compressors working under similar conditions.SAE J1591 is being discontinued because the content of this standard is also contained in ISO 6621-4. Therefore, to eliminate duplication and confusion in coordinating the standards between ISO and SAE, this document will be discontinued. The SAE Piston and Ring Standards committee will now continue to support ISO in updating the standards as appropriate.
