Swivel joints are critical components in the oil and gas industry, providing a flexible, pressure-tight connection that allows 360° rotational movement. They are widely used in loading arms, drilling systems, and high-pressure fluid transfer lines to reduce mechanical stress, absorb vibration, and ensure safe, reliable, and efficient transfer of process media under demanding operating conditions.
From the rig floor to the tank farm, swivel joints keep fluid moving through equipment that rotates, flexes, or repositions — without breaking the seal.
Handle high-pressure mud and fluid transfer through rotating drill string connections — absorbing vibration and mechanical stress while drilling continues.
Provide a pressure-tight rotating connection at the reel hub — allowing hose and umbilical lines to wind and unwind freely without twisting or leaking.
Fitted to marine and road tanker loading arms to allow full articulation during connection and transfer — keeping the line sealed as the arm moves with the vessel or tanker.
Accommodate the continuous rise and fall of a floating roof, keeping the drain line pressure-tight through every change in roof position.
Withstand high-pressure, high-flow slurry and fracturing fluid transfer — built for the demanding pressure cycles of well cementing and fracturing operations.
The CARBON series below are specified most often for oil and gas swivel joint applications. Final selection should be confirmed against your operating pressure, temperature, and RPM.
