437-7099 17:1 Compression Ratio Piston Body
The Cat® piston body is the main cylindrical component of the piston assembly that moves back and forth in the cylinder.
Description
The main purpose of the piston body is to convert the force produced by expanding gases into mechanical energy. It is a cylindrical or disc-shaped component that moves inside the cylinder, forming a sealed chamber and reciprocating as it interacts with the engine crankshaft.
Features
- Durability, strength, and heat resistance.
- Designed to withstand the mechanical forces generated during operation.
Procedure:
Piston bodies are used in internal combustion engines. They move inside the engine cylinder, compressing the air-fuel mixture and converting combustion energy into rotary motion.
