GORE® Automotive Vents for Fluid Reservoirs
Automotive fluid reservoir vents from Gore effectively manage pressure differentials and prevent contamination that can degrade reservoir performance and the performance of related components and the systems that depend upon those fluids.

Overview
Fluid reservoirs mounted under the hood/body are subject to frequent temperature changes that cause expansion and contraction. Altitude changes can cause pressure differentials that can pull contaminants of all types – water, dirt, dust, debris and automotive fluids – into the reservoir, compromising its performance and that of related systems.
As an additional hurdle, new fluid reservoir designs must also be resistant to water spray and/or splash to ensure long term reliability.
Our vents offer long-term resistance to urea crystal growth, for reliable and sustained equalization of reservoir pressures. In addition, our vents provide:
- water ingress protection
- particulate protection, preventing entry of dust, dirt and debris
- resistance to automotive fluids including, car wash fluids, and lubricants
Gore engineered venting products can provide a single venting solution for fluid reservoir venting needs, including urea reservoirs for Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) systems. Additionally, our vents’ low profile construction can simplify attachment during production.
As a result, our vents for fluid reservoirs can contribute to reduced unit costs - and enhanced reliability.
Product Specifications
GORE® Automotive Vents for Fluid Reservoirs are extensively tested, evaluated and qualified to perform consistently and reliably.
We offer a selection of vents designed especially for Urea/SCR applications.

Condensation Management Device offers industry’s first solution to actively removing headlamp moisture
Headlamp condensation is a recurring problem for the automotive lighting industry. It will become even more of a challenge as the industry moves to full-LED headlamps, because existing venting solutions can only reduce – not sustainably prevent – such condensation.
