Product Details

The Western Pacific Trading 10001 is a high-quality flax packing designed for marine and industrial sealing applications. This traditional packing material measures 1/8 inch in diameter and comes in a 2-foot length, providing reliable sealing for shaft packing glands and stuffing boxes.

Key Features:

  • 1/8 inch diameter flax rope packing for precise fitting
  • 2-foot length provides adequate material for multiple applications
  • Natural flax fiber construction offers excellent compression and resilience
  • Ideal for sealing propeller shafts, rudder posts, and stern tubes
  • Effective solution for repairing leaky stuffing boxes
  • Compatible with both fresh and saltwater marine environments

Flax packing is a time-tested sealing material that swells when wet to create a watertight seal around rotating shafts. This packing is particularly well-suited for marine applications where controlled weeping is acceptable and preferred over complete seal dryness. The natural fiber construction allows for easy installation and adjustment, making it an essential maintenance item for boat owners and marine mechanics.
