At Bartz, the quality and durability of our tail seal brushes are our top priorities. Each brush is manufactured under strict quality control to ensure effective and long-lasting sealing in tunnel boring machines (TBMs). Our brushes not only stand out for their wear resistance but also for their exceptional flexibility, allowing optimal performance in a wide range of operating conditions.
Superior Technical Composition
Bartz brushes are built with double crimped steel-brass wire, designed to provide tensile strength exceeding 2500 MPa, ensuring the bristles retain their integrity over extended periods, even under high pressure. Additionally, the tempered spring steel strips used in the plates provide high mechanical strength, ensuring the brush maintains its effectiveness over time.
Bartz’s unique fastening system ensures the bristles stay securely in place, even in the most demanding working conditions. This not only enhances the durability of the brush but also ensures that the sealing system operates continuously without interruptions.
Ease of Assembly and Maintenance
Our brushes are designed with ease of assembly in mind. The lateral plates used in the assembly process simplify installation, ensuring that the tail seal system remains intact without the need for complicated welding or modifications to the shield lining of the tunnel boring machine. This allows for quick and efficient maintenance, reducing downtime and improving overall productivity.
Technical Advantages:
- High tensile strength: Bristles made from double crimped steel-brass wire with tensile strength exceeding 2500 MPa.
- Tempered steel plates: Provide exceptional durability and ensure long-lasting effective sealing.
- Exceptional flexibility: Materials allow the brush to maintain its elasticity and shape, ensuring efficient operation even in harsh conditions.
- Easy assembly: Optimized mounting system that does not require welding on the tail seal’s outer plates, simplifying maintenance.
At Bartz, our tail seal brushes not only meet but exceed industry standards. With innovative materials and state-of-the-art manufacturing processes, we offer a reliable and durable solution to protect tunnel boring machines from water and grout ingress, ensuring continuous and efficient performance in your excavation projects.
