Seal Replacement Kits

OPW Engineered Systems has kits available to rebuild all swivel joints. The kits contain all the necessary parts to replace the wear parts. Before installing new seals, care should be taken to see that all machined surfaces are clean and that there are no nicks, scratches or burrs. Consult JGB for the proper kit.

Lubricants

OPW swivel joints should be lubricated periodically, depending on service and operating conditions. For normal operation, two or three times yearly is usually sufficient. Lubricating as often as once daily may be required when service is severe, such as high temperatures, heavy loads, or constant rotation. Recommendation: OPW 883 or a good Grade 2 cup grease. For EPT seals: OPW 885. For food service applications: OPW 887.

OPW 883 Lubricant

For swivel joints and similar applications. This is a general purpose industrial grease with rust and oxidation inhibitors for use with Buna-N, Viton®, PTFE and Neoprene seals. (Do not use with EPT seals.) Packaged in 14 oz. (400 grams) cartridge.

OPW 885 Lubricant

For use in OPW swivel joints and similar applications with EPT seals. 14 oz. (400 grams) cartridge.
