The centre joint is a key component in the hydraulic system of an excavator, allowing hydraulic fluid to pass between the slewing platform and the sump while allowing the slewing platform to rotate freely.The seals in the Center Joint Seal Kit ensure a tight seal between the various hydraulic passages of the centre joint, preventing leakage of hydraulic fluid. Good sealing ensures the proper operation of the hydraulic system and avoids system pressure drop and efficiency reduction caused by leakage. Good sealing performance can reduce the energy loss of the hydraulic system and ensure the efficient transfer of hydraulic fluid in the system. Efficient hydraulic system can improve the working efficiency of the excavator, reduce fuel consumption, and improve the overall operating efficiency.

A center joint seal kit is essential for maintaining the performance and reliability of the center joint, also known as the rotary joint or swivel joint, in heavy machinery like excavators. This component allows hydraulic fluid to pass between the upper and lower parts of the machine while enabling rotation. The kit typically includes a variety of seals and components designed to prevent hydraulic fluid leakage and ensure smooth operation. Key components often found in a center joint seal kit include O-rings, which create seals at various interfaces to prevent fluid leakage. Backup rings provide additional support to O-rings, preventing extrusion under high pressure. Rotary seals are crucial for sealing around rotating parts, ensuring no fluid escapes during rotation. Lip seals offer dynamic sealing for moving parts, while wear rings or guide rings reduce metal-to-metal contact and wear, enhancing the longevity of the components. Gaskets are used to create seals between flat surfaces, preventing fluid leakage at joints and connections. Additionally, dust seals or wipers keep contaminants out of the hydraulic system, protecting internal components. The kit may also include installation tools and an instruction manual to ensure proper installation and maintenance. Using a high-quality seal kit helps maintain the center joint’s performance, reduces downtime, and extends the machinery’s service life.
