Rapid growth in global agriculture has resulted in the widespread cultivation of land and natural resources. As consumption and productivity levels increase, the hydraulic systems in light-duty and heavy-duty equipment face the threat of premature failure. The likelihood of fluid leakage increases as seals wear and other ancillary components fatigue as a result of longer operating cycles and more hostile environmental conditions, such as high temperatures and external contamination.

Meeting performance requirements

Improvements in the processing capability of equipment such as harvesters, feeders, and sorters have resulted in technological advancements that give equipment prolonged service life and durability. Enhancements to tilling and harvesting equipment now allow farmers and developers to work with improved accuracy and greater productivity. As such, the performance requirements for the seals, bearings, guides, and wipers used in this equipment must complement in both design and output.

At Hallite Seals, we have a wealth of experience in providing solutions that are designed to enhance performance in the hydraulic and pneumatic systems found in agricultural machinery and equipment. Whether used to prepare the earth, carry the stresses of hauling heavy materials, or handle extreme front load duty, we have a portfolio of products that are designed and engineered to application-specific parameters.
