Abstract:
In one configuration, the present disclosure provides a cylinder including a first housing, a second housing, and an insert. The first housing includes a first body portion and a first collar portion. The first body portion has a first inner diameter, and the first collar portion has a second inner diameter that is greater than the first inner diameter. The second housing includes a second body portion and a second collar portion. The second body portion has a third inner diameter and the second collar portion has a fourth inner diameter that is greater than the third inner diameter. The second housing is coupled to the first housing such that the first and second collared portions cooperate to form an annular channel. The insert is disposed within the annular channel formed by the first and second collared portions.
