    carbon filled ptfe piston rings?

    does anyone know a source for stock carbon filled ptfe(teflon) rings?

    I am flexable in size - around 2 inches or more.... Looking for the 500Deg F working temp. (used a lot in oilless air compressors)

    thanks
    sam

    PTFE seals are used extensively in automotive and truck power steering units. The TRW made units have graphite/ptfe seals and most others have glass/ptfe seals.

    Find a local power steering rebuilder and they should be able to help you out with something fairly inexpensively.
