Garlock® Seals: Premium Quality for Reliable Sealing Solutions

Garlock Seals are renowned in the industry for their exceptional performance and reliability. With a wide range of oil seals available in various sizes and designs, Garlock offers comprehensive solutions for sealing applications. A key specialty of Garlock is their expertise in manufacturing gylon oil seals, which provide superior sealing performance in demanding environments.

Gylon: High-Performance Sealing Material

Renowned for its superior performance qualities, gylon is one of the best PTFE materials used in Garlock seals. These seals have unmatched sealing power and are known for their remarkable effectiveness, low leakage, and long operating life. Their dependability is crucial, especially when confronted with extreme chemical and corrosive environments when conventional seals become unreliable. Gylon seals not only live up to but also beyond expectations by offering a stable and reliable seal that prevents leaks and guarantees continuous operation. Gylon seals are the go-to option for sectors that require sealing solutions with unwavering performance and dependability due to their durability and effectiveness.
