The 187-630 Rod Wiper is a Piper OEM airframe component used as a sealing and protective element on landing gear or control linkage rod assemblies. Its primary function is to clean and protect moving rods or struts by removing dirt, moisture, and debris while maintaining smooth mechanical movement and preventing contamination of internal components.

This part helps extend the service life of landing gear and associated mechanical systems by reducing wear, corrosion risk, and buildup around moving interfaces. It is typically installed as part of the landing gear assembly and works continuously during gear extension and retraction cycles.

Made to Piper specifications, the rod wiper is generally manufactured from durable elastomer or composite sealing material designed to withstand repeated motion, environmental exposure, and temperature variation in aviation service conditions.
