The piston ring is the gatekeeper during the combustion process, and its task is to ensure that there is nothing around the piston. If the ring is not properly seated, you will lose horsepower and encounter many other problems. Total Seal's Quick Seat is a good lubricant that can be used when assembling the engine to ensure the best seal between the piston ring and the cylinder bore.

Many people who assemble their own engines use traditional motor oil as a lubricant for new engines. Quick Seat is a dry film lubricant, which can be regarded as graphite powder, but it is not graphite at all. The Quick Seat designed by Total Seal, as a mixture of mixtures, keeps wear and welding to a minimum during engine assembly and initial start-up. Prevent any abrasion or scratches between the piston ring and the cylinder wall, and a better fit can be achieved.

Lake Speed ​​Jr. of Total Seal provided some insights on why Quick Seat should be used when assembling engines.

"Oil needs speed to form an oil film. Think of water skiers: boats need to move to allow skiers to travel on the water. The same goes for your piston rings and motor oil. Pistons need to move quickly in order for the ring to ride on the oil film. Well, on the engine This will not happen during assembly and initial start-up. This is where the Quick Seat comes in-as a dry film lubricant, it does not require speed to provide protection. The Quick Seat provides a boundary film that can be used in this critical Prevent scratches at all times."

Another important feature of Quick Seat is that it can also be used as an indicator for the cylinder wall. When you apply the Quick Seat to the hole and it is gray, it means that the cylinder is still dirty. When the cylinder is completely clean, Quick Seat will turn the cylinder green, so if you see green, it means you are ready to assemble.
