Twist packing compresses under pressure to form its own washer seal, eliminating the need for a separate washer and providing a reliable, leak-resistant fit around valve stems. This product ships one piece per card, making it straightforward to stock and dispense at the point of use. It is a compact, lightweight material solution suited for the tool kits and service vans of licensed plumbers and experienced maintenance professionals handling routine valve packing repairs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwist packing is commonly used in residential and light commercial plumbing systems where older-style gate valves, globe valves, and compression faucets require stem packing replacement. The 24-inch length allows the installer to cut sections to the exact size needed for a given valve stem diameter, making one piece usable across multiple jobs or valve sizes encountered during a service call.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e24-inch length allows field-trimming to fit various valve stem sizes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eForms its own washer seal under pressure  -  no separate washer required\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold individually, one per card, for easy single-use stocking\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.02 pounds  -  minimal van inventory impact\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact card packaging sized at approximately 3.75 inches wide by 1.85 inches long by 1.1 inches tall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement packing material for residential and light commercial plumbing valves and faucets requiring stem packing, including older gate valves, globe valves, and similar compression-type valve assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwist packing installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or qualified maintenance technician. Before beginning, shut off the water supply to the affected valve and relieve system pressure. Wrap or insert the packing material around the valve stem in the packing gland, then tighten the packing nut until the assembly is snug and leak-free  -  do not overtighten, as this can damage the stem or restrict valve operation. Work should comply with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 24 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.02 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.85 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.1 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuantity per Package\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 46224810131\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: OATEY\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: PP81013\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OATEY","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68633405489458,"sku":"PP81013","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/17b1d632fba22ccd7e158719c40c7ce6.jpg?v=1794364379","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/oatey-pp81013-twist-packing-24-inches","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
