PRODUCT OF THE MONTH: GUIDE RINGS & WEAR RINGS
The installation of a guide ring or wear ring takes place in a recessed groove which creates a space-saving design for piston and piston rod guides. The size and number of guide rings and wear rings used in an application depend on the load during operation. Resin bonded fabric bushes can withstand very high loads due to the properties of the material it is made from.
