Restore air pressure in a compatible oil free air compressor with this cylinder service kit, it includes a cylinder sleeve, compression ring, piston rod screw, and two sealing rings, replace worn parts when the compressor runs but makes little or no air, unplug the compressor and release all tank pressure before repair, check the model and type number before ordering.
The piston ring between the cylinder and piston within an air compressor is used to form a tight compression seal to allow the piston to move up and down without touching the cylinder wall, as well as dissipate heat evenly away from the piston and align the piston properly within the cylinder. This piston ring is designed for and compatib...Read morele with various models of air compressor and is sold as an individual OEM part. This piston ring has a 48mm (1.89-inch) inner-diameter and 62.5mm (2.46-inch) outer-diameter and is specially coated and oil-free. If you notice increased noise and vibrations or simply poor performance from your air compressor, there is likely something wrong with the piston ring or pistons that would warrant an inspection. To replace this piston ring, first turn your air compressor off and disconnect the spark plug. Then, disassemble the cylinder by removing the cylinder head/cover or any other components blocking access to the pistons, referencing your user manual for the exact location. Once inside the cylinder, slide out the piston very carefully, and take note of its orientation. Remove the old ring from between the cylinder and piston and press the new one on with firm and even pressure. Now, reassemble the air compressor and monitor its performance.
Sourced directly from the manufacturer, this part is an exact replacement for various air compressors. Its primary purpose is to control the airflow through the pump. This part is an assembly that includes the plate gasket and seals.

O-rings are made to contain thousands of PSI pressure by creating a seal between two or more parts.

Commonly caused by a contact surface that it too rough, contains grit or is too smooth to allow lubrication. • Over Compression - The O-ring is flattened on both sides and may have a "ring" split along its length. Commonly caused by excessive pressure or heat. • Heat Hardening - The O-ring has a pitted or cracked surface, and is often flattened on both sides. Caused by temperature exceeding o-ring capacity. • Weather/Ozone Cracking - The O-ring is covered in small surface cracks. Caused by exposure to ozone, UV rays and air pollution. Excessive seal stretching (greater that 5%) causes similar cracking.

Actually don't like using Torx bits because they are hard to center deep in the channel. I had misplaced these forcing me to order replacements. My plan is to insert Torx bits before screwing in and using jb weld to secure the bit to the screw, giving me a hex head. Can't find this special screw with a hex head. This screw is called
