Nippon Piston Ring Co., Ltd.
 PROFILE
Understanding that Nippon is another word for Japan, it's not hard to remember where Nippon Piston Ring is based or what is its primary product line. About half of the company's sales come from making piston rings. Its remaining sales come from cylinder liners, valve train parts such as camshafts, and other internal combustion engine parts. The company sells to most of the major carmakers, including Ford, Toyota Motor, and Nissan Motor. Nippon Piston Ring is developing new engine products using special and sintered alloys. Japan accounts for most of the company's sales. Nippon Piston Ring has subsidiaries in Germany and the US. Toyota Motor and Nissan Motor both have stakes in the company.
