The circlip is a machine element usually made of steel. The piston ring, which has a wide range of uses, is generally used in cars and airplanes. It is therefore an extremely important material for industry.  Circlips are ring-shaped but do not have a completely closed structure. They have a gap at the edges and are designed in this way to prevent leakage between the piston and the cylinder.

Piston rings are extremely important materials to prevent leakage. Since the rings prevent the leakage of gases to a great extent, they prevent the burnt gases in the combustion chamber from filling the crankcase.

Another task of the piston rings is to lubricate the cylinder at the same time as they prevent the oil on the cylinder from leaking. In this way, they also help the cylinder to work better. In this way, the engine is also prevented from burning oil.

Another task of washers and piston rings is to cool the pistons. The piston rings transfer the high heat on the piston to the cooling water, thus cooling the piston.

What are the Properties of a Segment

The majority of washers and piston rings are made of steel alloy. The most important feature of piston rings is that they provide a very good friction performance. Piston rings are very durable materials. Because they are highly resistant to high heat and temperature in the engine and give maximum performance.

A number of substances are placed inside the piston rings to prevent wear and lubricate them. These substances include cadmium, tin, chromium, molybdenum, iron oxide and phosphate.

Hot engines also have a more durable type of fire ring. This ring experiences a much higher temperature than the first part of the engine. This ring is coated with molybdenum and chromium to make it more effective. Fire rings are also extremely durable and do not wear easily.

The pressure of the piston rings is also a very important issue. Under or over pressurization of the piston rings can cause various problems. The low pressure of the rings prevents the rings from fully performing their sealing duties. Again, due to the low pressure, it prevents the oils from abrading and the performance is greatly reduced. For this reason, it is important to adjust the ring pressure. Excessive pressure of the piston rings also causes other problems. Increased pressure in the rings causes the oil level of the rings and cylinders to decrease, causing wear and destruction of the rings and cylinders.

The way the rings are fitted to the pistons is also very important. It is of great importance that the gaps of the rings are distributed to the pistons at threshold intervals. If these gaps are not correctly spaced, it will cause the engine to leak oil. This increases oil burn and causes financial problems. For this reason, attention should be paid to the gaps when placing the piston rings.
