Ordered as 14600437-10, this is a Tallow Lubricated Flax Compression Packing built to a 7/16 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. 120 FT.
Tallow Lubricated Flax is specified here for field-cuttable rings for fast, inexpensive repacking, controlled leakage that lubricates and cools the shaft. It resists process media, shaft wear, and elevated temperature and pressure. It is not the right choice where over-tightening of the gland or running dry without flush are present.
You will find this material specified across water and process plants, centrifugal and reciprocating pumps, and valves and agitators.
Order part number 14600437-10, sold individually. Unit weight is approximately 10 lb. Confirm chemical compatibility, pressure and temperature against your own application requirements before installing. APG can cross-reference from an existing part number, a drawing or a physical sample if this size is not an exact match.
