A Piston Rod Guide Ring is designed to guide and support the piston rod within a hydraulic cylinder. Its primary function is to ensure proper alignment and minimize friction between the piston rod and cylinder bore. The ring has a split along its length which allows it to be compressed and expanded to snugly fit around the piston rod while maintaining a close clearance with the inner surface of the Cylinder Bore.Attributes:• Prevents lateral movement of the piston rod• Provides additional support allowing it to handle higher loadsApplications:A Piston Rod Guide Ring is used in a hydraulic cylinder to form a seal around the piston rod to prevent hydraulic fluid from leaking out of the cylinder.
