Hi,
have an engineering application (essential a high temperature plunger) and am looking for the smallest dia. commercially available piston and ring(s) that I can easily source.
So far the smallest I have found is 1.25" (32mm) from 25cc 2-stroke garden products such as weed wackers and hedge trimmers.
I know that the pistons in many smaller models don't use rings, I assume do the excessive friction.
Does any one know of any engines with pistons that have 1 (or preferably 2) rings, that are < 1.25" (32mm) dia, and places to source them? I'd be appreciate some ideas.
