Engineered for demanding hydraulic and pneumatic cylinder applications, this scarf cut wear ring provides precise radial guidance and lateral load support while minimizing metal-to-metal contact between the piston and cylinder bore.
Key Features
Scarf cut design allows easy installation without disassembling the entire cylinder — simply flex open and snap into the groove
Nylon construction offers excellent compressive strength, low friction, and resistance to hydraulic fluids, oils, and mild chemicals
Radial load bearing prevents side loading damage to rod seals and piston seals, extending overall cylinder service life
Dimensionally stable under operating pressures and temperatures typical of industrial hydraulic systems
Compatible with standard hydraulic cylinder groove profiles — verify bore diameter, groove width, and groove depth before ordering
Typical Applications
Hydraulic cylinders (mobile and industrial)
Pneumatic actuators
Linear motion systems requiring guided piston travel
Heavy equipment, agricultural machinery, and material handling
