To prevent conveyed material from spilling out the sides of the loading zone, skirtboard sealing systems are installed the between the chute steel and the belt.

Martin Engineering offers engineered skirtboard sealing systems, each fabricated of rugged materials and incorporating a self-adjusting function to reduce maintenance requirements.

Effective sealing at the edge of the skirtboard usually requires the installation of MARTIN® DURT TAMER Wear Liner on the inside of the skirtboard.

For recommendations for a specific application, contact a Martin Engineering representative or visit the MARTIN® Transfer Point System Selector.
