Product description

This 8-1/2 inch aluminum gland ring is a structural component for Western in-ground lifts, designed to replace the U-220 part. It acts as a retainer or guide within the cylinder head assembly, helping to hold the packing sets in place and provide a stable channel for the ram. Unlike the rubber seals, this aluminum ring provides the necessary rigidity to maintain the alignment of the sealing system under high pressure. It is precision-machined to ensure it fits perfectly within the 8-1/2 inch Western cylinder housing. Replacing a corroded or damaged gland ring with this SVI aluminum part is a key step in a full hydraulic cylinder rebuild.
