ABSTRACT:
A back-up ring to prevent damage to a packing ring disposed in a groove on an internal piston within a cylinder. The back-up ring has a folded portion with concave and a convex surfaces to prevent damage to the ring when it is unfolded to enlarge the ring for placement in the groove and re-folds to seat in the groove. In another embodiment, holes are disposed in the folded portion to relieve stress concentrations accompanying folding and unfolding of the back-up ring.
