FlexGuard - ideal for your pick up roll
Seal strips for pick up rolls
Our FlexGuard material (rubber graphite) is commonly installed in paper machines of all sizes worldwide. Minimal abrasion, excellent emergency running properties, long service life and simple handling make this material stand out. FlexGuard seal strips can be delivered in lengths up to 12 metres.
At Wefapress, we are able to manufacture seal strips up to 12 m long for paper machines with very large work surfaces. We also offer seal strips - in particular, wide 'silencer' seal strips - as two separate parts with a plug-in connection. The plug-in connection is built to be completely airtight and not only makes handling and assembly much easier, it also facilitates storage and transport.
Another great benefit of using flexible seal strips made from rubber graphite is that they are not as easily breakable as the graphite seal strips used in the past. FlexGuard can be used with all pick up rolls, whether it be for pulp, card, tissue or paper machines and regardless of whether the roll shell is made of bronze or stainless steel.
