Bands and guide shoes
For dry machines, we supply elastic bands in PTFE in various charges, in PEEK, in RESIN HY50 morganite, depending on the gases and operating pressures. For high pressures, however, we recommend balanced piston rings and counter rings to avoid the extrusion of PTFE.
The various geometric shapes of the cuts on the bands are a function of pressure. On the other hand, in lubricated compressors, elastic bands in PTFE, cast iron, bronze and Bakelite cloth are supplied. The guide shoes for horizontal, vertical and V compressors are supplied closed or open with grooves for gas leaks.
