Product Details

The Western Pacific Trading 10017 is a premium flax packing designed for marine and industrial sealing applications. This traditional packing material measures 1/4 inch square in cross-section and comes in a 2-foot length, making it ideal for shaft packing and stuffing box repairs on boats, pumps, and various machinery.

Key Features:

  • 100% natural flax fiber construction provides excellent sealing properties
  • 1/4 inch x 1/4 inch square cross-section fits standard stuffing boxes
  • 2-foot length provides sufficient material for multiple applications
  • Suitable for propeller shafts, rudder posts, and pump shafts
  • Can be lubricated with appropriate packing grease for optimal performance
  • Resists water intrusion while allowing controlled seepage for shaft cooling

Flax packing is compressed into the stuffing box around rotating or reciprocating shafts to create a seal that prevents excessive water entry while maintaining proper lubrication. This traditional packing material is preferred in marine applications where a small amount of drip is acceptable and even desirable for cooling and lubrication purposes.
