Abstract.   A ring R is called right strong stably finite (r.ssf) if for all n > 1, injective endomorphisms of RnR are essential. If R is an r.ssf ring and eR is an idempotent of R such that eR is a retractable R-module, then eRe is an r.ssf ring. A direct product of rings is an r.ssf ring if and only if each factor is so. R.ssf condition is investigated for formal triangular matrix rings. In particular, if M is a finitely generated module over a commutative ring R such that for all n > 1, M(n)R is co-Hopfian, then is an r.ssf ring. If X is a right denominator set of regular elements of R, then R is an r.ssf ring if and only if RX –1 is so.

Keywords:  Co-Hopfian; Ore ring; strong stably finite; weakly co-Hopfian.
