Ordered as 14600250-10, this is a Tallow Lubricated Flax Compression Packing with a 1/4 inch square cross section. The compression packing offers the most economical repairable shaft seal for pumps and valves. Supplementary detail from the product record: 10 LB. Box - Approx. 220 FT.
The material holds up against process media, shaft wear, and elevated temperature and pressure. That behavior comes from the compound itself: Tallow Lubricated Flax is valued for field-cuttable rings for fast, inexpensive repacking and dependable service life when correctly adjusted. It is not the right choice where over-tightening of the gland or running dry without flush are present.
It sees regular use in centrifugal and reciprocating pumps, mixers and rotary equipment, and valves and agitators.
Reference part number 14600250-10 when ordering; the item is sold individually. Unit weight is approximately 10 lb. As always, verify media compatibility and operating conditions against the requirements of your specific application.
