Garlock Metallic Gaskets
Garlock Metallic Gaskets, a division of Garlock
Sealing Technologies, manufactures spiral wound,
metal clad, solid metal and metal core gaskets at its
facility in Houston, Texas. This facility is registered to
ISO-9001.
In recent years, Garlock Metallic Gaskets has
introduced some of the industry’s most innovative
production methods and products. For example, the
CONTROLLED DENSITY™ process for spiral wound
gaskets ensures a high tightness level at a lower bolt
stress. The TANDEM SEAL™ combines chemical re-
sistance and fre safety in a single gasket. The Garlock
EDGE® gasket seals at lower bolt stress while virtually
eliminating the problem of inward buckling. Garlock
