ARP Bolts 3.760 Ring Compressor Kit, Aluminum, Black Anodized, Sold Individually
$61.95

If you're diving into an engine rebuild or just need to get those piston rings seated right, the ARP 3.760 Ring Compressor Kit is a solid choice. This thing is built from aluminum, so it’s lightweight yet tough enough to handle the job without bending or warping over time. The black anodized finish not only looks sleek but also adds a layer of protection against corrosion, which is a nice touch if you’re working in less-than-ideal conditions.

Now, let’s talk about the specifics. This ring compressor comes as a single unit, which is perfect if you don’t need a whole set cluttering up your toolbox. It’s designed to fit a variety of piston sizes, but make sure you check your specs because it’s optimized for a 3.760-inch diameter. That means it’s a great fit for many popular builds, especially if you’re working on a classic or a performance engine.

One thing I really appreciate about this compressor is how straightforward it is to use. You just slide it over your piston, and it helps keep those rings snug as you drop the piston into the cylinder. No more fumbling around trying to get everything lined up—this tool makes it a whole lot easier. Plus, if you’re new to this, you’ll appreciate how it minimizes the risk of damaging the rings during installation.

Overall, the ARP 3.760 Ring Compressor Kit is a reliable tool that makes your engine work a bit smoother. It’s not just about performance; it’s about getting the job done right the first time. If you’re serious about your engine builds, this is definitely worth having in your toolkit.

The Story Behind ARP Bolts

ARP (Automotive Racing Products) was founded by Gary Holzapfel in 1968 when he noticed his drag-racing friends succumbing to bolt-induced engine failure as a result of poor-quality fasteners. He drew upon his expertise in the aerospace industry to develop a solution, which turned into a successful business nonetheless. 

Since its inception, ARP has been engineering and perfecting a wide range of bolts, studs, nuts, and other fasteners for engines, cylinder heads, headers, wheels, and transmissions. Today, ARP remains the undisputed world leader in automotive fasteners. Racing aficionados everywhere know and recognize the ARP brand and can vouch for its quality.

What Makes ARP Bolts So Special?

Located in Ventura, California, all ARP processes from raw wire to finished fasteners are conducted in-house, right here in the USA. The company continually improves its processes with strict quality control guidelines and is dedicated to producing products that are second to none. Simply put, ARP Bolts are better than the competition because of their quality materials and advanced processes. 

ARP prides itself on using only top-quality materials that are above the usual “aerospace-grade” quality that other manufacturers settle for. For example, while 8740 Chromoly steel has four different grades, ARP only uses the top two, SDF and CHQ. These grades cost twice as much as the lower commercial and aircraft grades, but deliver “zero defect” quality that you can trust each and every time.

ARP Bolts are built to withstand serious racing, possess greater tensile strengths, and can survive higher stress levels than most aircraft fasteners. ARP is dedicated to creating fasteners that boast ultimate strength and durability to ensure they last race after race. Its product lineup ranges from quality high-performance OEM parts to exotic specialty hardware for IndyCar, NASCAR, NHRA drag racing, Formula 1, and even marine applications.
