Yes, one just has to be stronger than the other in order to provide a wearing effect on the other and get a proper seal and such. for instance you would never use chrome-plated rings in chrome-plated cylinders.
WCC steel is a high grade cast plain carbon steel. It is of a higher grade, quality, and price than WCB steel.
steel....alloy of Fe and C... carbon % being .2 to 2.1
A lot of class rings are made of a substance referred to as valadium. Valadium is steel, and does not hold it's value like a precious metal. Many class rings that are made of valadium are worth $25-$35.
Absolutely! I work with precious metals and I have seen class rings come in everything from stainless steel to gold (yellow and white...even mixed).
First this is wrong type of question, meaning that there is no such animal as non-alloy steel, just by the simplest definition of steel 'is an alloy of iron and carbon'.A more complex definition takes into account other elements which are added to steel such as Chromium (Cr), Nickel (Ni), Manganese (Mn) etc are just a few which are added to give certain properties after mechanical working and heat-treatment.
Rings of Steel was created in 1995.
Pressurized cylinders for LPG are made of steel.
There are 4 they are Low Carbon steel, Medium Carbon Steel, High Carbon Steel and Eutectiod
steel
Can stainless steel rings be sized?
Plain steel is just a Purified and Hard Iron.
yes you can use any steel cutter
Carbon steel, also called plain-carbon steel, is steel where the main alloying constituent is carbon

It would be wise to replace the rings while you have it apart. Need to deglaze the cylinder walls and install a new set of STEEL Rings. Do not use CHROME RINGS because they will not seat. And it will use oil then. Why are you rebuilding the engine in the first place? If parts of the engine are worn it would be reasonable to assume that the rings and/or cylinders are also worn. To do it right, have the cylinders tested for "taper", that will show you how much wear the cylinders have experienced, and if there is much taper you'll need to bore the engine and replace the pistons/rings. Tapered cylinders mean that the rings will constantly be moving against the piston ring groves. Also, check the piston ring groves for wear. If the ring grove is excessive the pistons will fail soon and the money you put into the rebuild will be wasted. Personally, I would never rebuild an engine without AT LEAST replacing the rings, even if there is no appreciable cylinder taper, and experience suggests that it's not even a good idea to reuse pistons. Odds are against an engine lasting very long if you reuse pistons that have much use.
Stainless steel rings are never used for any type of body decoration. Stainless steel is used for jewelry and watches because it will not oxidize or turn black.
