Description / Abstract:
Differences, where they exist, are shown in Appendix A.
This SAE Standard specifies the essential dimensional features
of HK- and HKB-half keystone rings with narrow ring width
types.
Dimensional and allow for the use of cast iron (Table 6) or
steel (Table 7). Since the modulus of elasticity of steel rings is
higher than that of cast iron rings, the fluctuation in the surface
pressure will become greater if the free gap is set as the
reference for forces. Therefore, forces are set using the surface
pressure as the reference in order to minimize the effect of the
fluctuation.
The requirements of this document apply to half keystone rings
of reciprocating internal combustion engines up to and including 70
mm diameter for cast iron rings and up to and including 100 mm
diameter for steel rings.
Rationale—SAE J2001 is being discontinued
because the content of this standard is also contained in ISO
6624-2. 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.
