E369K & E434K PISTON RINGS

[Franks86gn]

I cannot find what the major difference is between these Sealed Power ring sets other than price.

E369K30 - $36.39
E434k30 - $84.95

If anyone has any info please share.

Thanks!

Sealed power lists the E434k for turbo application and the E369k for Non turbo. I have used the E434k rings On lower HP cars in the past. The E series is their economy sets. For more serious apps you should consider a premium file fit ring.

I wonder what the actual differences are between the 2. Both are iron material with Moly top ring.

I used the E434K on my last engine making 585 RWHP for 4-1/2 HARD seasons with no issues.

I believe one is cast iron and the one is ductile iron. (both moly coated)

Thanks! That makes sense the ductile is more expensive. Better wear properties than grey iron.
