6-Port Rotary Union | Hydraulic Swivel | Standardized Design

For hydraulic systems that require multiple circuits operating at once, a 6-port rotary union provides the capacity to manage complex fluid routing through a single rotating connection. This configuration is typically used in equipment with several simultaneous hydraulic functions, where consolidating connections helps reduce external plumbing and simplify system design.

Built on a standardized swivel housing, this design offers flexibility for integration into a wide range of machinery. Multiple mounting hole patterns are incorporated into the body, allowing mounting plates or torque arms to be adapted to specific equipment layouts without extensive redesign.

The 6-port rotary union enables six independent hydraulic passages to operate at the same time, making it well suited for advanced systems with multiple pressure, return, and auxiliary lines. Each unit includes SAE ORB ports and is designed specifically for hydraulic fluid applications, supporting reliable performance in demanding environments.

Where a 6-Port Design Fits

  • Equipment requiring multiple hydraulic circuits beyond standard or mid-level configurations
  • Commonly used in cranes, drilling equipment, and excavators with several auxiliary functions or attachments
  • Ideal for rotating platforms and specialized machinery with complex, multi-function hydraulic systems

Models shown below are engineered specifically for hydraulic fluid compatibility.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Six independent flow paths to support complex, multi-circuit hydraulics
  • Standardized swivel housing to simplify integration
  • Multiple mounting hole patterns for flexible installation
  • SAE ORB ports on all connections for compatibility with hydraulic systems
  • Designed to maintain consistent flow under high pressure
  • Internal sealing system supports pressure retention and reliable operation

Rotary Union designs can be modified or customized per your specifications.
