ABSTRACT:
A powdered metal piston ring includes a structure of predominantly pearlite with a dispersion of metallic particles having an element with a high affinity for nitrogen. The ring is nitrided to form a hard surface layer at an outer periphery of the ring. The layer includes a first iron nitrided region and an adjacent region having greater hardness because of a reaction between the metallic particles and nitrogen. Preferred metallic particles include a high chromium steel alloy which forms part of the original powder metal of the piston ring.
