## Description

Packing Extractor, flexible shaft, removeable tip, Size F-1, 7-1/2 inch length, for packing sizes 1/4 & up.

Review: Works GREAT! - I just used this tool to remove all the old flax packing from my sailboat’s stuffing box. The stuffing box is not easy to reach. I have to lay on my belly and reach far down to the bottom of the boat, usually needing one hand to keep myself from sliding headfirst into the compartment aft of the engine. Once the packing nut is completely backed off, the sharp point of the extraction tool easily engaged the old packing. A few twists of the flexible handle then set the bit snugly into the old packing. I could then use one hand to hold the nut and pull the packing out with the other. And the piece of old packing stayed on the tool rather than falling into the bilge. There were 5 layers of old packing. This tool removed them mostly one at a time, but did pull out two layers once. This was the only part of the repacking process that was easy. This extractor works great.
Review: Works well - Its difficult to remove the packing in most pumps with the limited space. These tools are flexible and with a little effort you can remove the old packing sometimes in one piece. Be patient and pull on each side evenly. Don't try to corkscrew it into one side of packing just pull. You will most likely just pull the tool out of the packing. Remove the packing with two of these if you can. Sometimes you need to find more meat to the packing an move the extractor around into different locations until you begin to feel the packing move free.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worked Great!
*by K***R on March 6, 2020*

I had no idea that the stuffing would be so difficult to pull out. I ordered this tool and at the same time made an appointment with a professional boat mechanic if this tool didn't do the job. The tool engaged the packing material easily and would not give up no matter how hard I pulled. I found that using pliers to grab the tool and pry against the edge on the stuffing box eventually got the material moving. I can see how the corkscrew could pull out of the tip, I guess that's why the sell replacements. But the cork screw held fast in my tool even with all of the pulling and prying. ps. I did get to cancel the mechanic's appointment.
