I used a pair of channel locks and locked them straight on. Gave them an up and down wiggle motion with a pull at the same time and they both came off. Now trying to get the sleeves off is being a pain. So much calcification.

The felt appears to be a wool or at least something akin to the felt feet slides use on furniture to protect hardwood flooring. I would describe it as barrel shaped maybe a little wider than its height, and thickness of material being less than 3/16 approximately. This packing was necessary for the ease of turn of the valve as the rubber and teflon packing failed in turn or sealing up the water in my first effort. at replacement time I bought more than I need and have after several years developed a dribble due to a bent shaft from my first poor attempt at shaft removal. The package says it is a Danco product described as "felt bonnet packing 5/8 OD x 3/8 ID x 1-5/16. The packing felt has a rubber washer on either end matching its diameters. The product number is 35233C and appears to be sold as a sink faucet packing. Please be cautious, as I thought it was interesting no one mention the felt packing but I want to be clear my shower has no central mixing valve, just H and C but the packing nut and shaft and so forth are like the one in the OP.Tintcutterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04787868247873114004noreply@blogger.com
