got a hose reel that needs to spin without twisting the line. is this FS65 swivel the kind that’ll rotate all the way around?

For setups where the line needs to turn freely, the FS65 is built for 360° rotation and uses a balanced pressure design to keep the swivel action consistent.

seals on this thing, what are my options if buna-n ain't gonna cut it for what I'm running?
Answer by: Customer Support on Nov 30, 2025, 5:38 PM
Two other seal materials are available for this swivel joint. EPR is the suffix -04 option, and Viton is the suffix -06 option. Buna-N comes standard on the -01 suffix version. All three are rated down to -40 degrees C on the low end, so the cold side isn't where they differ. The choice really comes down to fluid compatibility with whatever media you're pushing through the line. A fluid compatibility reference document is available through Eaton's published resources if you need to cross-check a specific fluid against seal material.

Reckon this swivel joint will hold up alright for a hydraulic setup running around 3500 PSI? Don't want no leaks.
Answer by: Customer Support on Sep 12, 2025, 9:14 AM
It's rated to handle 3500 PSI in the 1/2 and 5/8 sizes, so you should be good to go there, provided you're using the right size. Also, make sure you get the right seal material, depending on the fluid you are using. Buna-N is standard, but EPR or Viton are available if needed.
