Everyone has favorites – favorite teams, favorite food, and some of our customers have a favorite gasket material manufacturer. At Hennig Gasket we want to give customers the gasketing solution that meets their needs, which is why we stock material from all the leading manufacturers.
“Leading” is key. We’re not going to sell you a material or product that will disappoint, so we’re particular who we deal with. The materials we stock and distribute come from established manufacturers with long track records and deep understanding of sealing and gasketing. One of those manufacturers, and certainly one of the best known, (customers ask for it by name,) is Garlock. Hennig Gasket is a stocking distributor of all Garlock Gasket Material.
About Garlock
Part of EnPro Industries, who specialize in engineered industrial products, Garlock is in the business of sealing fluids and protecting pipelines. They manufacture around the world, including in the US, and their products are used in industries ranging from food and pharmaceuticals to petrochemicals.
Technology-Driven
Garlock prides itself on the quality of application engineering (AE) support provided, and backs that up with extensive testing and product development capabilities. They continually invest in their production facilities and use R&D to ensure a steady flow of new product innovations.
Non-Asbestos Sheet Gasket Material
We carry two lines of Garlock compressed gasket material: Blue-gard and the Garlock 9000 series. The Blue-gard sheet materials consist of aramid heat-resistant synthetic fibers, fillers, and an elastomeric binder. This can be SBR, NBR, EPDM or neoprene. The 9000 series materials are similar but replace the aramid with carbon fibers. The 9800, 9850 and 9900 all handle continuous maximum temperature of 650°F.
Why Garlock?
When replacing a gasket it’s usually a safe strategy to make the new gasket the same as the old. As Garlock gasket material is among the most widely used, it makes sense to stay with that, unless it wasn’t performing.
Global reach means Garlock gasket material is available around the world. That’s useful for multinational manufacturers wanting to standardize on their gaskets: they just have to ask for Garlock.
Garlock are undisputed experts in sealing technology and have AE facilities second-to-none. When a joint proves particularly difficult to seal they have experts who can usually find a solution.
You don’t stay in business a long time without being dependable, (and at Hennig we’ve 90 years experience to back that up!) Garlock has been around a long time too, and we believe that speaks to their reliability and customer focus.
