A process for manufacturing a piston ring includes the step of forming a gap seal from an elongated member on one side and an "L-shape" on the other side; compressing the ring to close the gap seal and move the two ends into a nesting position; welding a wire across the outside surface of the ring to hold it in that compressed condition; placing a plurality of such compressed rings onto a mandrel; and tightly clamping them in axially aligned positions. The surfaces of the clamped rings are then ground into a cylindrical surface which simultaneously removes the wire and the weld. The nested ends including the elongated member and the "L-shaped" member nest together when compressed into a cylinder.
