We present here analytical arguments and numerical evidence for the existence of net directional motion of highly discrete sine-Gordon kinks under ac forces of zero average. We have also characterized the depinning of the oscillating kink under those circumstances, and analyzed the instability mechanisms of the phase-locked running solutions. Possible experimental relevance of this phenomenon in circular arrays of Josephson junctions is discussed.Financial support from DGES (PB95-0797) and CICYT (MAT95-0325)Publicad
