Heavy duty cast iron yokes are attached to the machined pads on the gate guides. An extension of the guide provides clearance for the slide to move to the completely open position. A machined pad on the yoke provides a true surface for...

The design of this seal provides a flat plane across the bottom of the gate without projections into the opening to ob- struct flow. The seal is mounted on a cast iron bracket and held in place with a...
