Piston Ring Tester

This mechanical model of Piston Ring Tester is also useful for checking tangential tension of piston ring. The instrument is fitted with cantilever assembly. The dial indicator mounted on the top, measures the deflection of the cantilever beam, under tangential force. The piston ring is mounted on the ring table. It is held in the metallic belt and compressed by pulling the lever down, closing the gap in the two ends of the ring to a desired value. Thus the cantilever deflects. The deflection in the cantilever is measured in the dial indicator and the tangential tension is indicated on the Dial Gage. The instrument is available in the different models: Model LTK – 1 (Ring Dia 25 – 160 mm) Model LTK – 2 (Ring Dia 40 – 250 mm) Model LTK – 3 (Ring Dia 100 – 400 mm) Model LTK – 4 (Ring Dia upto 700 mm).
