Designed for hydraulic cylinder and actuator applications, the Hercules Metal Clad Wiper provides reliable exclusion of contaminants from rod surfaces during retraction. The metal casing gives this wiper added structural rigidity, helping it maintain consistent contact and retain its form under demanding service conditions.
Manufactured by Hercules Sealing Products, this wiper is suited for use in industrial hydraulic systems where keeping dirt, debris, and moisture from entering the cylinder is critical to seal and rod longevity.

Question by: Curt A on Jul 4, 2025, 7:16 PM
metal clad wiper -- does the casing actually help it hold its shape better than a regular rubber wiper would?
Answer by: Customer Support on Jul 6, 2025, 4:31 PM
The metal casing on this one does give it a structural advantage over standard rubber-only wipers. It adds rigidity that helps the wiper maintain consistent contact with the rod surface even when conditions get rough. A plain elastomer wiper can distort or lose its sealing profile over time, especially under mechanical stress. The metal shell keeps everything in place and holds the form through demanding service cycles.

got a hydraulic cylinder rod that keeps dragging grit back in when it retracts, is this wiper meant to stop that?
Answer by: Customer Support on Aug 16, 2025, 7:59 AM
On rod retraction, the Metal Clad Wiper is there to wipe the rod surface and keep dirt, debris, and moisture from getting pulled into the cylinder, which helps protect the rod and internal seals.
