The Garlock SGi is the first seal to offer maintenance free and reliable bearing protection by preventing bearing contamination, lubrication loss and electrical damage. The Garlock SGi is a marriage of the Garlock GUARDIAN non-sparking, non-contact labyrinth seal and the AEGIS shaft grounding ring. The seal protects the bearings from electrical discharge damage, while at the same time preventing contamination ingress and lubrication egress.
