Swivel components can reduce the bending and movement of hoses and tubing, eliminate internal stresses and dampen vibration.
Specific and Standard Swivel Fittings
Hydraulic swivels are fluid pivot connectors. They permit relative movement and rotation and provide a sealed flow path for hydraulic media. Swivels are connected to tubes by either permanent or separable connections. They are available in various tube sizes, aluminum and stainless steel, and titanium in straight, elbow & U shaped swivel.
