Cement Industry: harsh conditions. Our solutions? Even tougher

High temperatures, abrasive dust, and non-stop production: in cement plants, filtration faces extreme stress every single day. Bags and cages must withstand thermal swings, vibration, hard-to-release dust cakes, and fast service operations to avoid downtime. That's why CleanAir designs and manufactures custom joint technologies ' from Slip Lok Joints to Double Groove Joints ' to ensure sealing reliability, fast maintenance, and long-term performance.

The cement filtration challenge

• Heat and thermal shocks stress metals and fabrics during start/stop and load changes.
• Abrasive dust from clinker and raw meal wears surfaces, welds, and sharp edges.
• Continuous operation leaves no margin for lengthy service.
• Sticky cakes demand efficient yet gentle cleaning pulses.

CleanAir's answer: joints engineered as part of the system

Stable filtration comes from the consistency of cage + joint + accessories working together.

Slip Lok Joints (tool-free, reusable, pressure-resistant)

• Snap-fit connection speeds up replacements and inspections at the baghouse.
• Smooth, rounded profiles lower abrasion on the filter sleeve.
• Secure hold under demanding pulse-jet duty.

Double Groove Joints

• Larger grip area for long-term locking stability.
• Reduced risk of play and micro-movements in operation.
• Fluid, sleeve-friendly design that minimizes cutting points.

Seamless integration with our cages

• Round, oval, or star geometries to match space constraints and target filter area.
• Beveled collars and end caps to protect sleeves and support smooth cake release.
• High-efficiency venturis to promote even cleaning with lower mechanical stress.

What you gain

• Reliable sealing with lower leakage risk and fewer localized build-ups.
• Faster maintenance and fewer in-field errors thanks to tool-free handling.
• Durability that extends the service life of bags and cages.
• Overall efficiency through more consistent cleaning and predictable behavior over time.

Where they excel

• Kiln and cooler filters.
• Raw mills and dust handling sections.
• Retrofits on existing systems that need targeted upgrades without structural changes.

Protect your cages and sleeves'even in the harshest environments. With Slip Lok and Double Groove joint technologies, your cement filtration becomes tougher, easier to maintain, and built for continuous operation.
