3760 Garlock® Gaskets

 

The MULTI-SWELL® Style 3760 gasket is for lightweight flanges and covers where nuisance oil and water leaks plague most industrial facilities. Unlike traditional vegetable fiber and cork gaskets that allow water and oil to “wick” through the body of the gasket, the MULTI-SWELL absorbs the media at the inside edge, swells, and creates a tighter, long term seal. 3760 material is made from aramid fibers and a proprietary rubber binder.
