Hastings
Manufacturing Company, LLC, a nearly 100-year-old American manufacturer
of piston rings, has announced the opening of a secure customer
extranet, or “e-Ring Center,” that integrates their national network of
commercial warehouses. The e-Ring Center provides real-time content on
product availability, order history, and the ability to place orders
online.
The benefits of the Hastings’ e-Ring Center to their
customers are three-fold. By logging on at www.hastingsmfg.com, you can
check on the stock in the Company’s warehouses in Spokane, WA, Los
Angeles, CA, Dallas, TX, Charlotte, NC, or the factory warehouse in
Hastings, MI. Orders may be placed for delivery from any of these
locations, potentially saving shipping time and expense. Lastly, stock
orders may be uploaded to the e-Ring Center to accurately facilitate
order entry. Should there be questions, the e-Ring Center is supported
through Hastings’ Live Chat.
Aftermarket users will also benefit
from an online ring finder and tech tips area, which hold the largest
database of piston ring applications in the industry, provide
cross-referencing by engine manufacturer, and an encyclopedic knowledge
base on piston rings and their applications––all powerful resources for
engine technicians. OEM visitors will discover informative content on

product applications and strengths. Here you can also learn of
