Our Sales and Engineering staff will help you evaluate your swivel application, please call 888.226.4673.
The swivel should be packed such that the surfaces coming in contact with the fluid being handled are compatible with
that fluid. In a case where the swivel is being used in a submerged service, this would include the dust seals and ball
bearings. We always recommend the use of the stainless steel ball bearings when building a swivel for submerged
service. Standard carbon steel ball bearings could rust together, making it impossible to disassemble the swivel and may
affect operation.
