Super Swivels Options
Base Material and Plating
Super Swivels are manufactured from Carbon Steel or 440C Stainless Steel.
Carbon Steel Zinc (Z) Plating is recommended for non-corrosive applications, i.e. hydraulic, pneumatic, etc.
Carbon Steel Nickel (NI) Plating is recommended for mildly corrosive environments, i.e. water, mild chemicals, solvents, etc.
440C Stainless Steel (SS) is a martensitic, high carbon, magnetic stainless steel, heat-treated to maintain a high-pressure rating. Not as corrosion resistant as 300 Series Stainless Steel.
Seal Material
(V) Viton® (Fluorocarbon) - For most petroleum based applications.
(AL) Aflas® (Tetrafluoroethylene-propylene copolymer) - Better resistance to many individual chemicals. For service in high temperature environments. (Low temperature limitations.)
(PFA) PFA Teflon® - High resistance to many individual chemicals where Teflon seals are required. (1,500 max psi)
Other seals available upon request:
Buna, EPR, Neoprene and Kalrez®.
Please specify oxygen use when ordering. Super Swivels are not recommended for breathing air or steam.
