A piston and connecting rod assembly configured for high compressive loading, or arduous duty cycle, such as in a two-stroke compression-ignition (diesel) internal combustion engine incorporates a spherical or cylindrical bearing between the piston and the connecting rod small end. A closed unitary retaining ring with a threaded circumference securing the piston and connecting rod together. The retaining ring has a profiled aperture or slot to allow installation by passage over the connecting rod. |
