TB Global Technologies Ltd. Product Lineup

A "swivel joint" is a piping fitting that allows for 360-degree rotation without leakage while transporting fluids. It is used to provide movement to piping or installed at the base of hoses to improve the efficiency of fluid transport and prevent twisting or damage to hoses. The basic structure consists of a swing piece (rotating side) and a coupling piece (fixed side), and the rotation is achieved with two rows of ball bearings. To prevent fluid leakage, it incorporates a seal packing for internal pressure and a dust seal for external pressure. Connection methods are selected according to the piping connection, including threaded (RC), flanged (JIS, ANSI, etc.), and welded (BE, BO). 【Features】 ■ Reliable quality based on long-standing manufacturing and sales experience since 1955 ■ A product lineup capable of handling low to ultra-high pressure ■ Selection of sealing materials that can accommodate a wide variety of fluids from low to high temperatures ■ Capable of manufacturing from small diameters to large diameters up to 20B (500A) ■ Piping design according to displacement is also possible ■ Extensive experience with submerged specifications for fuel immersed in storage tanks *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

TB Global Technologies' swivel joints eliminate twisting that occurs during hose movement and coupling attachment and detachment, improving maneuverability and maintenance. Swivel joints have been widely adopted since the 1950s in various industries such as food and beverage, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, semiconductors, oil, and steelmaking, and are also applicable to water-cooled piping and sanitary piping.

In the oil and gas industry, piping requires prevention of fluid leakage and flexible movement of the pipes. In particular, it is important to address temperature changes, vibrations, and corrosive fluids. Improper fittings can lead to accidents due to leaks and early deterioration of equipment. Our stainless steel swivel joints solve these challenges by allowing 360° rotation and accommodating high-temperature and corrosive fluids. 【Usage Scenarios】 - Oil refining plants - Gas supply facilities - Chemical plants - Tankers - Tank trucks 【Benefits of Implementation】 - Achieves flexible movement of piping - Reduces leakage risk - Extends equipment lifespan - Improves maintainability

In the chemical industry, the deterioration of piping due to corrosive fluids is a significant challenge. Corrosion of pipes can lead to accidents from leaks and a decline in product quality, posing risks of operational shutdowns. Particularly in plants that handle high-temperature and high-pressure environments or a variety of chemicals, selecting piping components with excellent corrosion resistance is essential. Our stainless steel swivel joints utilize stainless steel and allow for 360° rotation, enabling flexible movement of the piping and achieving high durability against corrosive fluids. 【Usage Scenarios】 - Chemical plants handling corrosive fluids - Piping in high-temperature and high-pressure environments - Piping systems with many movable parts 【Benefits of Implementation】 - Reduces the risk of pipe corrosion - Enhances plant safety - Lowers maintenance costs

In the food industry, hygiene management of the manufacturing process is extremely important. To prevent foreign matter contamination and ensure the provision of safe food, the cleanliness and corrosion resistance of piping are required. Particularly in processes that involve high-temperature, high-humidity environments or strong acidic or alkaline liquids, the deterioration and corrosion of piping can become problematic. TB Niigata's stainless steel swivel joints address these challenges. By using stainless steel and featuring a 360° free rotation design, they enhance the flexibility of piping layouts and facilitate cleaning. This contributes to improved hygiene management in food manufacturing and helps ensure the provision of safe food. 【Usage Scenarios】 - Oil and steam piping within food factories - Areas where piping movement is necessary 【Benefits of Implementation】 - Compatibility with food piping - Prevention of piping interference

We would like to introduce a case study on the implementation of swivel joints for shipping equipment. When handling fluids or during bunkering, if a loading arm is not installed on the land side, the operation will be conducted using hoses, which requires the tightening of bolts and nuts during hose connection. By installing a swivel joint on the hose neck, it helps absorb the twisting of the hose and facilitates easier handling. In particular, chemical hoses have a large bending radius, requiring considerable effort for handling, but it enables the work to be done safely and efficiently. 【Case Overview (Partial)】 ■Challenges - The larger the diameter, the more difficult it becomes to handle the hose, leading to time-consuming alignment of bolt holes due to hose twisting. - Flanging while the hose is under load can result in insufficient tightening of bolts, which may lead to leaks. ■Effect: Significant reduction in vessel waiting time. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.
