English Translation of Title:
High-Pressure Swivel Joint – Swivel Body for Water Jet Cutting Machine Parts, Model No. 10134716-High-Pressure-Swivel-Joints-Swivel-Body.1142.3-1

Introduction, Application, Features, and Maintenance:

This component is the swivel body of a high‑pressure swivel joint designed for water jet cutting systems. It is the main rotating housing that allows one connected line to rotate relative to another while maintaining a high‑pressure seal, and is typically used as part of a swivel joint assembly.

Application:
Used in high‑pressure swivel assemblies within water jet cutting machines. The swivel body connects to mating components (such as nipples, adapters, or hoses) and provides rotational freedom in applications where lines must move or be adjusted without twisting or stressing the piping. Common uses include cutting head articulation, pump connections, and mobile or gantry system plumbing.

Features:

• Rated for extreme pressures common in water jet cutting, up to 6,000 bar (87,000 psi).

• Incorporates precision bearing and sealing surfaces to enable smooth rotation under pressure.

• Manufactured from high‑strength, corrosion‑resistant material suitable for abrasive water jet media.

• Allows rotation without transferring torque to connected hoses or rigid lines.

• Precision‑machined internal passages maintain flow efficiency and minimize pressure loss.

• Designed for integration with complementary swivel components (e.g., nipples, seals, locking rings).

Maintenance:

• Regularly inspect the swivel body for signs of wear, pitting, cracking, or corrosion, particularly on sealing and bearing surfaces.

• Check for leakage around the swivel area during system operation.

• Verify that the swivel rotates freely; any binding or roughness may indicate contamination, seal wear, or bearing damage.

• Replace the swivel body immediately if leakage, surface damage, or loss of smooth rotation is detected.

• Use only recommended seals, lubricants, and mating components during reassembly.

• Keep the swivel body clean and protected from abrasive particle ingress when not in use.

• Follow the manufacturer’s torque and assembly procedures.
