Piston Ring Expander Unistress / UPRE: Opens straight-cut piston rings easier
Piston ring expander unistress, UPRE, is a tool designed to open straight-cut piston rings on 4-stroke engines. Each type of UPRE has been provided with a stop. The stop limits the deformation of the piston ring to a minimum, still allowing the piston ring to slip over piston diameter.
