Garlock Sealing Technologies Launches New Gasket Line At Chem Show

Palmyra, NY - Garlock Sealing Technologies (www.garlock.com), a leader in fluid sealing technology for more than 100 years, will premiere a family of new and improved gaskets for critical service in Stand 844 at Chem Show 2007 in New York City from October 30-November 1, 2007. The company will also showcase its HYDRA-JUST Sealing System and MULTI-SWELL gasket fluid sealing technologies for the chemical process industry.

• MULTI-SWELL Gasket Reduces Failure Due to Insufficient Load As the world's first general service self-loading gasket, the MULTI-SWELL gasket virtually eliminates the most common cause of gasket failure - insufficient load - by creating its own load when in contact with oil or water. Handling better than conventional gaskets, MULTI-SWELL gaskets cut with ease and readily conform to irregular flanges, ensuring tight seals at lower loads. MULTI-SWELL gaskets feature extremely high crush strength allowing safe installation in applications that would typically crush elastomeric gaskets.
• HYDRA-JUST Sealing System Replaces Mechanical Seals in Most Industrial Pumping ApplicationsDesigned for hostile environments, the leak-free, no-dilution HYDRA-JUST Sealing System replaces mechanical seals in most industrial pumping applications, and eliminates the risk of catastrophic failure. The fluid sealing system provides fair warning to required seal change allowing maximum uptime and conveniently scheduled maintenance operations.
