Most pistons in internal combustion engines typically have three rings: two compression rings and one oil control ring. The compression rings help seal the combustion chamber and maintain pressure, while the oil control ring regulates oil consumption by scraping excess oil from the cylinder walls. Some high-performance or specialized engines may have additional rings, but three is the standard configuration.
