Piston ring for Terex HC230

The 0781 235 16 piston ring is a component engineered for the Terex HC230 crawler crane. It is installed within the piston grooves to ensure a proper seal against the cylinder wall. This component is compatible with the Terex HC230 model.

Piston rings serve as a seal between the piston and the cylinder wall. In internal combustion engines, these rings seal the combustion chamber to maintain compression and regulate oil consumption. In hydraulic systems, they prevent fluid bypass between cylinder chambers, which allows the system to maintain the pressure required for linear movement. By providing this seal, the rings assist in heat transfer from the piston to the cylinder wall, which helps manage operating temperatures within the assembly.
