1/2" TALLOW LUBRICATED FLAX PACKING

APG stocks the 14600500-01, a Tallow Lubricated Flax Compression Packing with a 1/2 inch square cross section. A compression packing seals the shaft while allowing controlled leakage that lubricates and cools the packing set. Additional detail on this item: 1 LB. Box - Approx. 8 FT.

Tallow Lubricated Flax is specified here for field-cuttable rings for fast, inexpensive repacking and braided construction that conforms to the stuffing box. The material holds up against process media, elevated temperature and pressure, and shaft wear. Applications involving running dry without flush or over-tightening of the gland call for a different compound.

It sees regular use in mixers and rotary equipment, water and process plants, and valves and agitators.

This item is sold individually under part number 14600500-01. Unit weight is approximately 1 lb.
