SLIDE GATE CYLINDER SEAL KIT , Model Name/Number: SLIDE GATE CYLINDER SEAL KIT

  • (Customer Reviews)
Overview

In industrial applications, a Slide Gate Cylinder (often found in bins, hoppers, or conveyors for bulk material handling) operates differently than an excavator. These cylinders are usually pneumatic or low-pressure hydraulic, focusing on high-cycle reliability and environmental sealing against dust, powders, or chemicals.

A Slide Gate Cylinder Seal Kit is specifically designed to handle the "start-stop" nature of opening and closing heavy gates.

Component Technical Feature
Piston Seal Usually a U-Cup or T-Seal design. In pneumatic gates, these are pre-lubricated to prevent "stiction" after sitting idle.
Rod Seal Often made of Viton (FKM) if the gate handles hot materials, or Polyurethane for high abrasion resistance.
Heavy-Duty Scraper A "Hard-Lip" wiper designed to flick away fine dust or granules before they enter the cylinder gland.
Static O-Rings These seal the end caps to the cylinder barrel, typically made of Buna-N (NBR) for general oil/air resistance.
Wear Bands Prevent the piston from scoring the aluminum or steel barrel during the "shoving" motion of a stuck gate.

 

  • Zero Leakage: Prevents fine particulate matter from escaping the cylinder housing, which keeps the workspace clean and reduces waste.

  • Atmospheric Protection: High-quality rod seals and wipers prevent moisture or outside air from entering the hopper, which could cause "clumping" of sensitive materials like sugar or dry chemicals.

  • Smooth Startup: Premium seal kits feature Self-Lubricating PTFE or specialized grease-retaining grooves. This prevents the "jerking" motion (stiction) that occurs when a dry seal sticks to the cylinder wall, ensuring the gate opens smoothly even after being closed for days.

  • Consistent Cycling: Ensures that the gate closes at the exact speed required to "shear" through the material flow without jamming.
