Garlock Utility Grade 2920

Garlock Utility Grade Style 2920 is a compressed sheet gasketing material engineered with aramid fibres and an SBR binder, specifically designed for plant utility systems. Garlock highlights its performance in water, steam, inert gases, and mild acidic or alkaline solutions.

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.

What Sets This Material Apart

The SBR binder is what distinguishes Style 2920 from Garlock Utility Grade 2900 and 2950 (NBR nitrile-bonded) and 2930 (neoprene-bonded). A material engineered for water and steam utilities should never be selected for hydrocarbon service simply based on a similar product reference.

Recommendations for Replacement Studies

For steam lines, determine the continuous operating conditions, startup cycles, bolt loads, and flange specifications. Maximum pressure and temperature ratings are discrete limits; their concurrent application does not constitute an approved operating condition.

To compare constructions: Garlock BLUE-GARD 3200 and Garlock BLUE-GARD 3400. While these sheets also use an SBR binder, their mechanical properties and service limits may differ.

KEY COMPARISON CRITERIA

Style 2920 utilizes SBR, unlike the NBR-based 2900/2950 and the neoprene-based 2930.
