Rider Rings

Product Description

Rider Rings, also known as rider bands or rider seals, are components used in reciprocating air compressors to provide a sealing function between the piston and the cylinder wall. They work in conjunction with the piston rings to create an effective seal and prevent air leakage during the compression and power strokes. The primary function of rider rings is to improve the sealing efficiency between the piston and the cylinder wall. They help minimize air leakage past the piston, ensuring that the compressed air is effectively compressed and transferred to the discharge port. Rider Rings are typically made from materials such as carbon, cast iron, or synthetic materials with self-lubricating properties.
