Greasable & Sealed Non-Greasable

The W (Regular Duty) Series Swivels are specifically designed for tension stringing to assure the conductor will remain in the neutral position during stringing of transmission and distribution lines. These swivels are manufactured from high-grade pre-stressed steel. Proper placement of thrust and radial bearing allow thrust & shock loads to be absorbed without affecting rotation of swivel. Pins are screwdriver removable.
