Bluestar Spares

We have for our clients an excellent array of Connecting Rods that are used to connect the piston to the crankshaft in a reciprocating piston engine. Coupled with the crankshaft it converts linear motion into rotating motion and vice-versa.

 

Clients can acquire from us a wide variety of Crankshaft that are used in reciprocating piston engines to convert linear motion into rotation. The crankshaft has crank throws or crankpins that are additional bearings that have an axis which is offset from the crankshaft. The big ends of the connecting rod are connected to this from each cylinder.

 

A piston is a component of reciprocating engines, reciprocating pumps, gas compressors and pneumatic cylinders, among other similar mechanisms. It is the moving component that is contained by a cylinder and is made gas-tight by piston rings. In an engine, its purpose is to transfer force from expanding gas in the cylinder to the crankshaft via a piston rod and/or connecting rod. In a pump, the function is reversed and force is transferred from the crankshaft to the piston for the purpose of compressing or ejecting the fluid in the cylinder.

We provide our clients with a distinctive range of Piston Ring that fits into groove on the outer diameter of a piston owing to its open-end. It is used in a reciprocating engine such as steam engine or combustion engine. Mentioned below are the main functions of these rings:

 

• Regulating engine oil consumption
• Sealing the combustion/expansion chamber
• Supporting heat transfer from the piston to the cylinder wall
