Method of making oil scraper piston rings

摘要

A method of making an oil scraper piston ring includes the following steps of providing a base ring body including a circumferential web having flanks and an outer circumferential surface; galvanically depositing on the web a wear resistant hard chromium layer having solid particles embedded therein; applying a break-off resistant cover layer to the hard chromium layer; and grinding the cover layer to provide the outer circumferential surface of the web with sharp bounding edges
