Garlock MULTI-SWELL 3760 is a proprietary elastomeric-bound fibrous gasket engineered to swell in a controlled manner upon contact with water or oils to enhance sealing performance.

Our Quebec facility manufactures custom-cut flat gaskets to your exact specifications. VAMECA can also evaluate the supply of this part number or engineer a suitable replacement.

To properly select or replace this material

What Sets This Material Apart

Expansion upon contact with the media generates a localized compression mechanism, particularly effective when flange bolt loading is low on lightweight assemblies. This material is not a conventional compressed fibre sheet.

Recommendations for Replacement Studies

Identify the process fluid, acceptable dimensional growth, and flange cover rigidity. Do not systematically substitute a high-pressure application with a swelling gasket.

To compare construction profiles: Garlock MULTI-SWELL 3760-U and TEADIT NA1088. Swelling formulation and chemical compatibility must be verified against the exact grade data sheet.
