Swivel joints (deflection blocks) enable the rotatable connection of hydraulic lines and are used wherever connections need to move with the equipment – e.g. in drum applications on forklifts (see images below).
They ensure that hydraulic connections can be safely routed past moving components without twisting or damaging the lines.
The swivel joint has a G 3/8 internal thread on both sides, into which suitable screw connections can be inserted according to customer requirements.
Advantages:
- Enables rotatable connection of hydraulic lines
- Protects against twisting and mechanical stress
- Ideal for moving applications such as hose reels on forklifts
- G 3/8 internal thread on both sides for flexible connection options
