ABSTRACT:
A piston has a first endwall, a second endwall and a tubular ceramic sidewall extending between and forming a closed cylinder with the endwalls. The piston does not include a piston ring. The first endwall is substantially flexible and is releasably interconnected with the second endwall by means of connection with an extended portion of an associated piston rod mounted in a hub of the second endwall. As a result, the first endwall is urged into a concave configuration. The ceramic piston sidewall is mounted for reciprocation within a ceramic cylindrical wall. An anti-rotation device is provided to limit rotation of the endwalls relative to the sidewall, and another anti-rotation device is provided to limit rotation of the hub relative to the piston rod.
