Cylinder rings

    We can design and manufacture piston and rider rings to suit any cylinder configuration. Where clients experience poor performance with original ring designs, we can recommend improvements and upgrades.

    The selection of the most suitable cylinder ring design must consider:

    • The operating temperature and pressures
    • The relative surface speed of mating components
    • The design bearing load
    • The condition of the counter faces
    • Impurities or catalysts that may be present in the gas

    Our design range includes standard single or multiple pieces, overlap joint, pressure relieved and pressure balanced rings as well as more intricate designs for specialized applications. However, the design is not selected in isolation, it must be matched with the most suitable material for the application. As we design and manufacture our own materials, we can provide the widest ring design and material range in the industry, which means the best opportunity to solve difficult sealing applications.
