316 grade stainless steel is a high-quality alloy known for its superior resistance to corrosion and pitting, especially in chloride-rich environments like saltwater. This makes it ideal for marine applications.
The Allen key is inserted into the pin on the jaw side. Turning the Allen key locks the pin, securing the jaw. Turn it in the opposite direction to release the pin and open the jaw.
The breaking load for this 6mm swivel is 938 KG.
This swivel has a breaking load of 938 KG, which indicates its strength. However, for critical lifting applications, always consult with a qualified engineer to ensure it meets specific safety requirements and is rated for the intended load, considering dynamic forces and safety factors.
It is recommended to clean the swivel with fresh water after each use, especially if exposed to saltwater, and to dry it thoroughly. Regular inspection is also advised.
The dimensions are A: 65mm, B: 26mm, C: 12mm, D: 6mm, E: 12mm, F: 15mm, G: 15mm.
Yes, the product description indicates that an Allen key is included with the swivel for operating the flush pin.
Inspect for debris or salt buildup within the rotating mechanism. Clean with fresh water and a soft brush. If the issue persists, a small amount of marine-grade lubricant may be applied to the pivot point.
Ensure the Allen key is the correct size and is fully inserted into the pin's recess. Check for any debris in the pinhole. If the pin is seized, try gently tapping the Allen key while attempting to turn.
Although made of 316 stainless steel, prolonged exposure to aggressive environments can still cause minor surface issues. Clean the affected area with a stainless steel cleaner and a soft cloth. For significant pitting, consider replacing the swivel to ensure load-bearing integrity.
Setup: To set up the swivel, attach the eye end to one component and the jaw end to another. Secure the jaw using the provided Allen key to engage the flush pin. Ensure the Allen key is tightened sufficiently to lock the pin but not overtightened to avoid stripping.
Compatibility: This 6mm swivel is compatible with ropes, chains, and cables that can be secured within its eye and jaw fittings. Its primary compatibility is with other 316-grade stainless steel components to maintain optimal corrosion resistance. It is particularly suited for marine hardware and general rigging.
Care: To maintain optimal performance and longevity, regularly inspect the swivel for any signs of wear, damage, or corrosion. Clean with fresh water after exposure to saltwater and dry thoroughly. Periodically check the tightness of the flush pin and reapply lubricant if necessary, especially after prolonged use in harsh conditions. Avoid using abrasive cleaners that could damage the stainless steel surface.
