Ball Swivel Fittings are used between the tool and air supply hose to eliminate kinking and twisting. Ball Swivels provide a more natural range of motion than the "traditional" air tool swivel fitting. In addition to providing a greater bend angle (20 degrees to 25 degrees depending on size) and flow capacity than ball swivels made by other manufacturers., these fittings will increase tool maneuverability and production capacity, minimize user fatigue, extend the life of the hose and minimize cost. Made of hardened steel with nickel-plated barbs.
Coilhose Pneumatics offers the following lines of Fittings:
The Swivel Fittings are ideal for a broad range of medical, industrial, laboratory and instrumentation applications involving pneumatic systems. Swivel Fittings are available with 10-32 UNF, 1/8-27 NPT, or 1/4-18 NPT threads. Three models are available, Straight Swivel, Swivel Elbow and Swivel Tee. The unique design (Patent # 4,496,204) allows the fitting to swivel 360 degrees. The snap type fitting is sealed with a Buna-N, Viton, Silicone, or EPDM o’ring. All models are available with barbs for 1/16”, 3/32” or 1/8” I.D. flexible tubing. The absence of a molded parting line on the first barb guarantees a leak free seal.
