Safeguard Equipment and Your Investment: New GORE® Protective Vent for Gearboxes

Safeguard Equipment and Your Investment: New GORE® Protective Vent for Gearboxes

A new venting solution to extend the life of oil-filled gearboxes, traditional and e-motors/drivetrains in heavy equipment, rail, marine and new energy applications.

GORE Protective Vents' compact gearbox vent is designed to outperform open tubes, rattle caps, breather caps and ordinary membrane vents in the most challenging outdoor environments. Gore's gearbox vent:

  • Effectively blocks ingress of damaging contaminants, providing IP69k-level protection for gears.
  • Has an integrated pre-filter that captures internal oil aerosols before they can damage or clog the GORE Membrane.
  • Responsively equalizes pressures, to protect seal integrity.
  • Prevents oil spillage and provides excellent chemical, mechanical and temperature resistance over time.
  • Can reduce Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) by simplifying design and installation processes and streamlining parts ordering and inventorying.
