Default Packless shaft seal v. stuffing box

The goretex packing is good stuff! Nuff said!


What brand name is the Goretex packing sold under? Is it available at
West Marine or another such chandlery?

Default Packless shaft seal v. stuffing box

It's great stuff! I installed in five years ago in my stuffing box,
and after the initial tightening, have only had to adjust it a couple
of times, each maybe 1/16 of a turn or so. Info. at:
http://www.gore.com/en_xx/products/s...ing_fiber.html
Buy it at: http://www.e-marine-inc.com/products...g/packing.html
