Gland Packing Extractors
Gland Packing Extractors from Vulcan Seals are flexible, purpose-built tools designed to facilitate the easy removal of old packing of any size. The long flexible shank allows access to glands in even the most awkward and hard-to-reach positions, making light work of what can otherwise be a time-consuming and difficult task.
The hardened and tempered steel screw end is engineered to give maximum penetration into the packing, ensuring a secure grip and clean extraction every time. Available in four sizes to cover a wide range of packing dimensions, from 1/8" (3.2mm) up to 3/4" (19mm) and beyond — and also available as a complete set of four.
