Maybe many people are not clear what three gaps of piston ring of generator engine is, and its functions. So sometimes asking the test methods and measurement method. Today Starlight Power company summarizes the test and measurement of three gaps of piston ring (end gap, back gap, side gap) . When assembling piston ring of generator set engine, we should ensure that there is a good fit clearance between the piston ring and the piston environment, and the inner wall of the cylinder, so as to prevent the piston ring from being stuck and broken. The following tests shall be carried out for this purpose. The test methods and steps of measurement for three gaps of piston ring 1.Eng gaps of piston ring The end gap of the piston ring is that the piston ring is placed in the inner wall of the cylinder, and there should be a gap at the opening position. The main purpose of leaving this gap is to place the piston ring stuck in the cylinder after being heated and exp...
