Ordering Information - Swivels
Our factory sales and engineering staff will be happy to help you evaluate your swivel application. Please call 800.355.1991.
The swivel should be packed so that the surfaces coming in contact with the fluid being handled are compatible with that fluid. In
the case of the use of the swivel in submerged service this would include the dust seals and ball bearings.
Dixon always recommends the use of stainless steel ball bearings when building a swivel for submerged service since the
standard carbon steel bearings could rust together making it impossible to disassemble the swivel and possibly affecting its
operation.
