Summary:The present invention concerns, first, a piston-rod scraping ring accommodated in a groove in a dashpot cap and, second, a method of inserting such a ring in such a groove. A piston-rod scraping ring () of elastic material accommodated in an inward opening groove () in a dashpot cap () and especially intended to scrape water and dirt off a piston rod (). The object is to allow the ring to be easily inserted into the groove and secured there until the overall dashpot is assembled. The groove is accordingly higher at its outer circumference and its inner circumference () is deformed, compressing the rim () in place.
