The surface () includes a sealing portion () adjacent to the leg () and one or more discharge portions () sloped downwardly from the sealing portion () to one or more of the edges (A,B,L), for discharge of wear materials therefrom. The sealing portion () is positioned proximate to a portion of the traveling grate () and defines a gap (G) therebetween. The gap (G) is configured to mitigate flow therethrough.
