✦ Synopsis

The facility, with almost 40 employees, will cease operations by April. Fluidtec is part of Coltec's Garlock Sealing Technologies division. Coltec says that Fluidtec's primary product line, mechanical seals for rotary pump applications, is not meeting its profit goals and is not a growing business, and will be phased out accordingly.

Coltec plans to focus on products made by Garlock, such as gasketing and oil seals, that are used in many applications.
