Lever Group Piston Sleeve
Brass piston sleeve for the Rossi AL67 lever group, the shared lever mechanism used across several classic Italian espresso brands. The piston rides inside this sleeve on every pull of the lever, so wear here directly affects brewing pressure and consistency.
SPECIFICATIONS
- Material: Brass
COMPATIBILITY
- Fits: Rossi AL67 lever groups, including Astoria CMA, Ascaso, REPA, and Wega branded machines using this group
- Replaces: Astoria CMA #56352, Ascaso #AS..28, REPA #5500730, Wega #WY56352
INSTALLATION
Moderate difficulty — requires disassembling the lever piston assembly; recommend a technician comfortable with lever group rebuilds.
PRO TIPS
- Inspect the sleeve's bore for scoring or an oval (out-of-round) wear pattern — this is what causes a lever machine to lose brewing pressure gradually over time even when the gaskets are fine.
- Replace the piston seals/gaskets at the same time as the sleeve; reusing worn seals against a fresh sleeve bore shortens the life of both.
