Equi-Flex - Rod Wiper/Scraper

Equi-Flex™ rod wiper/scrapers consist of a honed, double-spiral wiping element of age-hardened beryllium copper (Rockwell C 40 hardness) surrounded by a synthetic rubber elastomer. It is designed so that the beryllium copper element is distended from the final rod diameter. It is precision honed to an inner-diameter tolerance of ±0.0005″. The honing process guarantees a true circle on the ring inside diameter and provides a highly polished and knife-sharp edge. In operation, the beryllium copper ring polishes the rod without damage to the rod’s finish. It is self-sharpening and does not oval, curve, or feather.

Equi-Flex™ rod wiper/scrapers are found wherever hydraulic or pneumatic cylinders are used. They have demonstrated their effectiveness on fork lifts, resistance welders, off-road machinery, farm equipment, hydraulic presses, foundry machines, and aircraft landing gear.
