Isolate the combustion chamber above the piston from the crankcase below the piston, so that the pressure does not blow-by the piston into the crankcase. Also they ensure an even spreading of crankcase oil along the walls of the cylinder to prevent wear. They also provide improved thermal contact from the piston to the cylinder walls, which are cooled by the cooling system.
