Garlock acquires pump diaphragm line from WL Gore

Manufacturing of the ONE-UP pump diaphragm product line will be relocated from Gore’s facility in Elkton, Maryland, to Garlock Sealing Technologies’ facility in Palmyra, New York.

Garlock Sealing Technologies will continue to exclusively use Gore’s PTFE material to manufacture the ONE-UP family of products.

“The acquisition of this product line is a very exciting opportunity for GST. It underscores that the business remains healthy and viable as GST seeks a final and definitive resolution of asbestos claims against it,” said Steve Macadam, president and CEOof EnPro Industries Inc, the parent company of Garlock Sealing Technologies.
