Flax fiber is very commonly used for plumbing applications. It is usually used for sealing pipes, knobs, and other plumbing joints.
It offers very unique properties that no other material can offer. It has a very high tensile strength which allows it to hold under high tension without breaking unlike cotton. It is also organic fiber, so it does not rust like metal. And the most important quality is its unique fuzzy texture which allows it to wrap around pipes tightly without slipping or breaking.
We offer flax fibers for plumbing uses in two grades in order to cater for a wider range of clients. The fiber can be hackled flax (Long Fiber or Machine Tow) or Rescutched Tow. Some uses require the highly combed fibers; for these uses, we offer the higher-grade sliver.
We offer our plumbing fiber in a dispenser pack of continuous tape. The tape is made of highly combed natural flax fiber without any impurities.
The dispenser is Specially designed for professional and domestic plumbing. It is easy to use and store due to its small size.
The sliver weight is 1 gram. per meter.
Available in dispenser packs of 40 and 80 grams.
