A piston ring assembly includes an inner ring, a first outer ring, and a second outer ring. The inner ring has an outer surface and an inner surface that extends between a first inner ring face and a second inner ring face. The first outer ring has a first outer ring outer surface disposed opposite a first outer ring inner surface, each extends between a first outer ring face and a first outer ring second face. The first outer ring inner surface engages the outer surface. The second outer ring has a second outer ring outer surface disposed opposite a second outer ring inner surface, each extends between a second outer ring first face and a second outer ring second face.
