Wear Ring 1-11674 for Waterjet Pump Cylinder Protection Parts

The Wear Ring 1-11674 is an important support and anti-wear component used in Waterjet Intensifier pump systems. Its main function is to guide moving parts—typically the piston or plunger assembly—while preventing direct metal-to-metal contact with the cylinder wall.
By maintaining proper alignment and reducing friction, the wear ring helps protect the cylinder surface, stabilize reciprocating motion, and improve the overall efficiency of the intensifier system under ultra-high-pressure operation.
A high-quality wear ring is essential for extending the service life of both the piston assembly and cylinder, while ensuring smooth and stable pump performance.

Is Wear Ring 1-11674 a Wear Part?

Yes — the Wear Ring 1-11674 is a typical wear part.
Because it continuously operates under friction, reciprocating motion, pressure load, and side force, the material gradually wears down over time. This is intentional in design, as the wear ring protects more expensive components like the cylinder and piston.
If not replaced in time, it can cause increased clearance, piston instability, cylinder damage, and reduced sealing performance.
Regular inspection and scheduled replacement are strongly recommended.
