Hydraulic FluoroDiamond™ Rod Wear Ring

Rod wear rings are used to guide the rod in the cylinder. FluoroDiamond™ refers to a special surface structure which is provided on the sliding surface only. The advantages are improvement of the lubrication properties, no stick-slip effect, higher load capacity, and wear-resistance.

Rod Wear Rings are available in most PolyFluor™ and some PolyTel™ materials.
