HBB45Y Series Double Plane Swivels (OPW Type)
Black Electrophoresis Finish for Enhanced Durability and Comfortable Handling
The HBB45Y Series swivel is engineered with advanced American design for gasoline self-service and commercial fueling applications. Installed between the fuel hose and nozzle, it effectively reduces hose strain and wear while providing dual-plane rotation for easy nozzle positioning, enhanced operator comfort, and longer hose life. The black electrophoresis treatment enhances corrosion resistance, improves appearance, and provides a superior grip.
Global Naming Variations
Due to regional terminology and common industry usage, this component is referred to by different names across global markets. In Europe, it is often described as a fuel hose swivel or an OPW-style double-axis nozzle connector. In North America, the terms double plane swivel and fuel nozzle rotary connector are more commonly used. Across the Middle East and Africa, it is typically known as a rotating hose adapter or fuel hose connector, while in Asia and South America, it may be identified as a double-plane nozzle swivel, black swivel connector, or simply a fuel hose joint.
Although the terminology varies by region, the underlying function remains consistent: allowing smooth hose rotation during fueling, minimizing hose twisting and mechanical stress, and helping extend the overall service life of the fuel hose.
