Advanced Seal Package for Maximum Protection
At the core of the Flex Guard In-Line Flange Swivel is our innovative seal package, designed to prevent leaks. This advanced system features energized cap seals, which provide longer-lasting durability and maintain a secure seal under high pressure. A high-temperature urethane-loaded lip U-cup increases performance by preventing leaks at both low temperatures and pressures, ensuring reliable operation in fluctuating environments. A backup ring reinforces the seal structure, reducing wear and extending the lifespan of the flange swivel. This combination of high-performance sealing components delivers exceptional reliability, protecting your hydraulic system from premature failure and costly downtime.
Target Areas for the Flex Guard In-Line Flange Swivel
- High Hose Abrasion – Ideal for areas where hydraulic hoses experience repetitive motion. The Flex Guard Flange Swivel reduces stress on hoses, preventing premature failure and extending service life.
- Hard-to-Maintain Areas – Designed for machinery sections that are difficult to access for routine maintenance. Hose failures in these locations can lead to costly downtime and extensive labor for repairs. The Flex Guard Flange Swivel minimizes the risk of failure, keeping equipment running efficiently.
- Cyclical or Continuous Motion Systems – Perfect for equipment that requires hoses to move repetitively or rotate continuously. The Flex Guard Flange Swivel prevents twisting and flex fatigue, maintaining hydraulic flow.
- Heavy-Duty Mobile Equipment – Ideal for excavators, loaders, cranes, and agricultural machinery, where constant movement and hydraulic articulation require a flexible and durable connection.
