Wipers

A wiper, also known as a scraper, axcluder, or cleaning ring, is a component used in hydraulic and pneumatic systems to prevent dirt, dust, moisture, and other contaminants from entering the system.
The wiper removes debris from the rod or shaft as it moves in and out of the cylinder, helping to keep the system clean and significantly extending the service life of seals and the entire system.

Wipers (Scrapers)

Wipers are used in pneumatic and hydraulic cylinders. Their purpose is to remove dirt, moisture, and other contaminants from the piston rod. When the rod retracts into the system, the wiper prevents contaminants from entering, helping to avoid damage to the rod, cylinder wall, and other components.

In addition, the wiper prevents premature failures and contributes to a longer cylinder service life. Despite this important function, the wiper is often underestimated.

When selecting the right wiper, it is essential to consider the profile, environmental conditions, travel speed, and temperature.

The most common wipers are single-acting, where the element serves purely as a scraper. There are also double-acting wipers (combi wipers) that function both as a rod seal and as a scraper.

Wipers are available for both open and closed grooves.

Wiper dimensions

To determine the size of your wiper, several factors are important:

The outer and inner diameter of the cylinder, the groove length, and the wiper height.

(Sometimes a wiper comes with multiple height steps.)

Open Groove

Closed Groove

Closed Groove Double Acting

Custom wipers

If your size is no longer available, we can also produce custom wipers.

With our production machine we can supply made-to-measure wipers.

Thanks to a large database of profiles, we can deliver your desired wiper quickly.

A broad range of materials is available as well.

Wiper materials

Wipers are commonly available in NBR, Polyurethane, FKM (Viton), and PTFE.

For PTFE versions, a PTFE ring is energized by one or two O-rings.

For NBR, PU, and FKM, versions with a metal core or metal case are also available.
