Product Details

The Western Pacific Trading 10003 is a premium flax packing material designed for marine and industrial sealing applications. This traditional braided flax packing provides reliable sealing for shaft packing glands and stuffing boxes on boats, pumps, and other rotating equipment.

Key Features:

  • 1/4 inch square cross-section for versatile applications
  • 2-foot length in convenient retail packaging
  • Natural flax fiber construction for excellent lubricity and heat resistance
  • Ideal for repairing leaky stuffing boxes on propeller shafts and rudder posts
  • Compresses to form a watertight seal around rotating shafts
  • Traditional marine-grade packing material used for decades

Flax packing works by creating a controlled leak that lubricates the shaft while preventing excessive water intrusion. Simply wrap the packing around the shaft in the stuffing box, compress with the packing gland, and adjust for proper drip rate. Perfect for boat owners performing maintenance on stern drives, sailboat shaft seals, and rudder glands.
