TERMINAL > LOADING > LOADING ARM SWIVELS
SJW swivel joints are designed for fabrication of loading arms and pipe work requiring up to 360º rotational joint.
They are available machined from steel or aluminium with pre-prepared ends 100mm (4”) or 75 mm (3”) for welding directly to pipe or tube.
A cost-effective way of achieving a rotating joint, for loading arms or other machinery requiring swivelling joints.
This swivel incorporates the well-known high load, low wear Liquip principle of ball with needle bearing combination used exclusively throughout Liquip loading arms.
Sealing is provided by a Viton or nitrile primary face V-seal, and two viton O-Rings which isolate the bearing pack from the product.
Any ingress past a worn primary seal is contained by the secondary o-ring, before the product contacts the bearings. Any leak is also immediately visible from a telltale weep indicator hole (initially supplied with a plug fitted).
The greasing system is the Liquip trademark grease relief system to ensure correct lubrication, by ejecting old grease and particles that can cause wear.
Liquip recommend re-grease at maximum six-month intervals depending on service environment.
