Understanding Rod Wear Rings
Rod wear rings play a pivotal role in hydraulic and pneumatic systems. By supporting the rod in the cylinder, they prevent metal-to-metal contact, which is crucial in minimizing friction and wear.
The Importance of Piston Wear Rings
Piston wear rings, on the other hand, are designed to stabilize the piston as it moves within the cylinder. Their primary function is to prevent the piston from making direct contact with the cylinder wall, thus reducing friction and preventing damage.
