Piston rings seal the piston in the cylinder: they maintain compression, scrape off excess oil and carry heat away. The 44.50 mm size is an oversize (larger than the standard 44.00 mm). Brand: SEE. Country: Taiwan.
They should be replaced if compression drops, cold starting is hard, there is smoke from the muffler, or oil is being consumed. The size is given in the name; if the cylinder has been bored, oversize rings are needed. Not sure whether the part will fit? Call the store and we will help you choose for your model.
