I have a 1" prop shaft, e.g. I assume a 1" stuffing box and used 3/16"
flax when I repacked it several years ago.....FYI

Eugene,
The size of the flax (stuffing) depends on the diameter of the prop
shaft.....what is the diameter of the shaft?

I noticed that my stuffing box has started leaking pretty badly and
suspect that the flax has never been replaced. I tightened it up
once, but think it's at it's end.
Does anyone know what size flax to use in the nut?
Thanks,
