Osculati Cotton Hemp & Teflon Marine Propeller Shaft Gland Packing 6–10 mm, 2 m
Osculati Marine Propeller Shaft Gland Packing is a braided sealing material designed for use in traditional marine propeller shaft stuffing boxes. Manufactured from long fibres of mixed cotton, hemp and Teflon, the packing features a square cross-section for sealing around the rotating propeller shaft.
The product range includes three sizes with square cross-sections of 6×6, 8×8 and 10×10 mm. Each version is supplied in a 2-metre package.
Cotton, Hemp and Teflon Construction
The packing is manufactured from long fibres consisting of a mixture of cotton, hemp and Teflon.
Its square cross-section is intended for creating sealing rings within the propeller shaft stuffing box.
Marine Propeller Shaft Sealing
The gland packing is designed to provide watertight sealing in the propeller shaft stuffing box.
Different packing dimensions are available for different shaft diameter ranges and stuffing box arrangements.
Square-Section Packing
Three cross-sectional sizes are available:
- 6×6 mm: For propeller shafts Ø18–25 mm.
- 8×8 mm: For propeller shafts Ø25–35 mm.
- 10×10 mm: For propeller shafts Ø40–60 mm.
Installation Recommendations
The manufacturer specifies that the gland packing should be installed in short sections, with each section forming one individual sealing ring.
The packing should be cut to the required length for the corresponding stuffing box and arranged as separate rings rather than installed as one continuous spiral.
2-Metre Package
Each product is supplied as a 2-metre length of braided gland packing, allowing the material to be cut into individual sealing rings during installation or maintenance.
