Standard type with single ball raceallows free rotation between hose assembly and attached handling equipment such as filling nozzles.Standard duty Swivel Joints are used e.g. in filling plants to avoid torsion of hose assemblies and improve the handling and coupling of nozzles if no integrated swivel is attached.One capsulated ball bearing and PTFE bearing. Electrically conductive.Designed to allow smooth rotation (slow rotary movement) of operating devices such as filling nozzles.Not certified to bear side loads or high bending moments; for high bending movements, please use 'heavy duty' Swivel Joints.Available sizes ¾" (DN 19) up to 4" (DN 100).
Special type 'Heavy Duty' with double ball raceallows free rotation between hose assembly and the fixed point of a plant / pipe system, e.g. tank truck or rail tanker connection.Heavy duty Swivel Joints are designed especially for hose reels to load and unload products where high bending forces can occur - e.g. offshore hose reels ship-to-shore, oil platform loading rigs, hoses for road and rail tankers.Two capsulated ball bearings. Electrically conductive.Designed to allow smooth rotation (slow rotary movement) of hose assemblies which are attached to a fixed point of the pipework, e.g. rail tanker or tank truck connection.Suitable to bear high bending moments. Do not use for strong side loads directly on the swivel.Available sizes 2" (DN 50) up to 10" (DN 250).
