GUIDE RINGS
Guide rings have a rectangular cross-section and are chamfered at the corners to
avoid excess edge pressures at groove corners. The chamfers also serve to simplify
assembly.
The standard design has a chamfered cut at the ring end. Guide rings can be used for
every piston and rod diameter. The slit "m" is especially necessary for that function.
