Question on Buehler Scope Rings

This concerns the thin spacer piece that was provided with Buehler split scope rings. I'm aware that the rings were available in both 1 inch and 26 mm sizes. But, did both size rings come with the spacer piece as part of the assembly, or did the addition of the spacer make a 26 mm ring out of a 1 inch ring? In other words, what is the purpose of the spacer piece? (If this question is more applicable to the "Accessories" threads, I sincerely apologize.)
 
The 1" rings do not become 26mm rings just by changing the spacer. The spacer is there to keep the rings from being damaged by overtightening and to allow fitting on scopes that were actually slightly under 1".
