HBB45 Series Fuel Hose Swivels (OPW Type)
Double Plane Rotation for Enhanced Fueling Efficiency
The HBB45 series swivels are engineered using advanced American technology, designed specifically for self-service fuel stations and commercial refueling points. Positioned between the fuel hose and nozzle, these swivels reduce hose stress, prevent unnecessary wear, and allow smoother operation while extending hose life.
Global Terminology and Recognition
Operators around the world refer to this type of swivel in various ways:
Europe: Often called “fuel hose swivel” or “OPW nozzle adapter.”
North America: Commonly known as “double plane swivel” or “rotating fuel hose connector.”
Middle East & Africa: Referred to as “rotary nozzle coupling” or “fuel hose swivel adapter.”
South America & Asia: Frequently called “nozzle swivel connector,” “dual-axis hose swivel,” or “fuel hose rotation joint.”
While the terminology differs, the function is universal: enabling smooth, flexible fueling operations while reducing hose fatigue and improving longevity.
