In the world of engineering, machinery, and mechanical systems, dust can be the difference between a reliable piece of equipment and disaster.

Dust can cause major damage to cylinder walls, rods, seals and other components inside of machinery. And if you’re not careful, dirt, mud, debris, and water can all cause damage as well.

These foreign contaminants are real problems for mechanical systems, especially as they build up in small quantities over time. A single particle of dust today may be no big deal. But a speck of dust per day will eventually become enough of a presence to cause serious issues, like friction, surface wear, and imperfect seal contact between surfaces.

These issues could compound until the mechanical system experiences a complete failure. And in some applications, like in automobiles and aircraft, failure is simply not an option.

Beyond those industries, many types of equipment need to stay clean on the inside, even when things get extremely messy
