This paper is concerned with questions that have been considered for groups. Group rings whose unit groups are torsion over their centers have been inyestigated by Sehgal, Cliff, Coelho, Bist, Motose, Tominaga, Ninomiya, Passman, Gonçalves and Bovdi. Now it is investigated when the unit Moufang loop \({\mathcal U}(RL)\) is a torsion of bounded exponent over the centre if: (i) \(R=Z\) is the ring of rational integers; (ii) \(R=K\) is a field of characteristic \(p\geq 0\). This work continues the research of the earlier papers ``Alternative loop rings with solvable unit loops'', J. Algebra 240, 25-39 (2001; Zbl 0983.20066), ``Moufang unit loops torsion over their centres'' and ``Nilpotent Moufang unit loops'', J. Algebra 190, 88-99 (1997; Zbl 0878.17031) of the same authors, where they gave necessary and sufficient conditions for the solvability and for the nilpotence of \({\mathcal U}(RL)\) for various \(R\).
