Wear Rings
Wear Rings, also known as guide rings or bearing rings, are designed to prevent metal-to-metal contact between the piston and cylinder bore, or rod and cylinder head. These rings guide the piston and rod, ensuring smooth operation and reducing wear and tear on the cylinder components. Wear Rings are essential for maintaining the alignment of the moving parts in hydraulic and pneumatic systems, thereby extending the life of seals and reducing the risk of cylinder damage.
