Excavators
Excavators of all sizes work in tough environments, such as mines or urban construction sites, where dirt, dust and harsh media are constant factors. Sealing solutions need to be extremely robust to withstand some of the harshest of operating conditions, keeping external media out and lubricants in, as well as ensuring the best machine performance.
Excavator Applications
In construction equipment, drive components perform a vital function, transferring power from the engine to the final drive, which supplies torque to the equipment’s tracks or wheels. The drive system consists of an engine and a network of components. Engines can have a variety of configurations and sealing solutions are designed to meet the unique requirements of each application.

Within hydraulic and pneumatic systems, cylinders and actuators play a critical part in excavator operations, and for these to function effectively, seals within the systems must help achieve maximum performance over a long operating cycle without leakage.

In hydraulic systems, valves direct and control flow generated by pumps. The resulting force operates the hydraulic components within the excavator itself, as well as any cylinders on attachments. To maximize efficiency for the operator, valves and pumps must run precisely to exclude external media and extend time between planned maintenance.

The implements and attachments on excavators enable them to perform a wide range of functions, from digging and earthmoving to breaking rocks, compacting ground material and demolishing buildings. Given the proximity these attachments can have to the ground, static and dynamic seals are vital in keeping dirt and contamination out of the system. Linear and rotary seals allow for the smooth and quiet operation of the hydraulic equipment while preventing leakage into the environment.
