Tail Sealing Box

To conquer the age-old problem of material spilling off the tail of the conveyor, install the Martin® Tail Sealing Box. Installed on the rear of the chutework, the box uses Martin® ApronSeal™ Skirting and Strip Rubber to create an effective seal to keep material on the conveyor.

Features and Benefits:

  • Seal keeps material from sliding off the belt
  • Belt motion deflects tail seal to prevent accumulation at back of box
  • Deflected sealing strip contains rollback without scraping off adhered material
  • Return material to belt through easy-opening Martin® Inspection Door
  • Field-welded on chute wall to ensure precise fit
