IGarlock luhlobo lwaseMelika olunikezela ngokusetshenziswa kakhulu kwamaza okugcwala kanye nezisombululo zamapayipi ezimboni ezahlukahlukene emhlabeni jikelele.
Yasungulwa ngo-1887 ePalmyra, eNew York.
Ekuqaleni kwaqala njengomkhiqizi wemikhiqizo yerabha.
Ngo-1912, inkampani yethula ukupakisha kukaGarlock, into evimbayo yokuvala uphawu eyaxazulula izinkinga zokuvuza ezinjini ezinenjini.
Ngo-1928, le nkampani yethula izinto zokuqala ze-asbestos gasket.
Ngesikhathi seMpi Yezwe II, inkampani yayingumhlinzeki omkhulu wezimpawu zikawoyela kanye nama-petrol emishini yezempi.
Ngo-2013, uGarlock wafaka isicelo sokuqothuka kweSahluko 11 ngenxa yenani elikhulu lezimangalo ezihlobene ne-asbestos.
Ngo-2018, le nkampani yaqhamuka ekuqothulweni kwemali futhi manje isiyixhaso le-EnPro Industries.
I-Chesterton ingumkhiqizi wemikhiqizo yezimboni yaseMelika onikeza izisombululo nezinsizakalo eziningi zokubopha uketshezi.
I-Flowserve ingumhlinzeki wamazwe omhlaba jikelele wemishini yezimboni nezemvelo, kufaka phakathi amaphampu, ama-valve, uphawu, kanye nemishini ye-automation.
UJohn Crane ngumkhiqizi wemikhiqizo yezimboni waseMelika osebenza ngezimpawu zemishini ezakhiwe, amasistimu okusekela uphawu, nezisombululo ezithwele.
I-Klozure inikeza uhla lwemikhiqizo yokubopha, kufaka phakathi abahlukanisi, uphawu lwe-hydraulic, kanye nama-petrol, aklanyelwe ukuvimbela ukungcoliswa nokwelula impilo yemishini.
I-Gylon ihlinzeka ngoxhaxha lwama-gaskets asebenza kakhulu, kufaka phakathi ama-PTFE gaskets, enzelwe ukusetshenziswa ezinhlelweni ezibandakanya amakhemikhali, ama-asidi, kanye namazinga okushisa amakhulu.
Isitayela 8798 iyi-gasket e-mbili eyenzelwe ukusetshenziswa ezinhlelweni ezibandakanya izingcindezi eziphakeme namazinga okushisa, njengamapayipi nemikhumbi.
UGarlock usebenzela izimboni eziningana, kufaka phakathi ukucutshungulwa kwamakhemikhali, uwoyela negesi, amandla kagesi, ne-pulp nephepha.
Imikhiqizo kaGarlock yaziwa ngekhwalithi ephezulu, ukuqina nokusebenza kwayo. Zenzelwe ukuphatha izinhlelo zokusebenza eziyinselele kanye nezimo zokusebenza ezinzima.
Cha, uGarlock wayeka ukusebenzisa i-asbestos emikhiqizweni yayo ngawo-1990s. Kodwa-ke, le nkampani ibhekane nezimangalo eziningi ezihlobene ne-asbestos ngenxa yokusebenzisa kwayo kwangaphambilini impahla.
Imikhiqizo ye-Garlock iyatholakala ngabasabalalisi abagunyaziwe kanye nabathengisi emhlabeni jikelele. Ungazithenga ngqo kwiwebhusayithi yenkampani.
Yebo, uGarlock unikeza ukwesekwa kwezobuchwepheshe, ukuqeqeshwa, nezinye izinsizakalo ukusiza amakhasimende ayo ukuthi andise izixazululo zawo zokuvala uketshezi nezisombululo zamapayipi. Ungaxhumana nethimba lenkonzo yamakhasimende inkampani ukuthola eminye imininingwane.
