You can take the dimentions to a compressor dealer, bore ring height oil control height, easy just to take the piston in.
I had no problem finding mine at a local compressor shop nowhers near your location. I don't know what you have but it was all too easy last time I tried. My bore was worn on mine, so ring end gap was an issue on my ancient unit, a lot better but not optimal. I would take good bore measuments to go with it, to be able to optiomize the endgap.

Just picked up a used 5hp 60 gal upright compressor, circa 1987. It's an Energair 1 model EA5E6VA and compressor has 3EN52823 stamped on it. Local Ingersoll-Rand dealer has checked and factory service parts aren't available. Compressor works ok for impact/ratchet, but has blowby that gets worse when it's run a long time (for blasting, etc), so I am thinking rings are in order. Anyone have a piston ring place that might have something for it?? Doing some online searches, but not coming up with much yet. Leads appreciated! Wallyman
