Rotary Swivel (Oscillating) Elbows
Parker's rotary swivel elbows are the ideal choice for applications that require flexibility. The rotary swivel elbow (also known as an oscillating elbow) features low friction washers to allow the fitting to move in conjunction with the strokes of the pneumatic cylinder piston. This movement improves the life expectancy of the tubing by not allowing too much stress to be placed on the tubing. Due to the patented internal D-Seal, these pneumatic push-to-connect fittings provide a tight seal, even in vacuum applications. As with our entire line of pneumatic push-to-connect fittings, our rotary swivel elbows install fast and with minimal tooling. Just push the tubing into the fittings until it bottoms. The threaded connections arrive from the factory with thread sealant pre-applied to prevent system contamination from PTFE tape.
