The cross head is a piece between the piston rod and the connecting rod, which prevents the transfer of lateral forces to the piston. Due to repeated fractures of the crossheads because of higher than standard permissible forces, the Nika Compressor Engineering Unit has taken steps to redesign and build this piece. And by maintaining the standard weight and dimensions, has chosen the right alloy with high structural quality and high working potential that ensures the compressor functional health.
