Regular standard joints corrode fast in acid or alkali conditions, leading to leaks and downtime. However, PTFE-lined swivel joints offer a smarter, tougher solution—they're built for the chemical fight. They're like the armored knight of loading arms, ready for battle.
Here's why they're choosen:
Corrosion resistance reduces spill risks, protecting operators.
Smooth rotation and durability boost productivity.
Longer life means fewer replacements.
Perfect for acids and alkalis.
The PTFE lining acts like a fortress, shielding the swivel joint from acids, alkalis, and other corrosive nasties. It’s chemically inert, meaning it doesn’t react with even the harshest substances.
These joints can pivot fully in multiple planes, giving your loading arm the flexibility to reach any tanker angle. The PTFE lining reduces friction, making movement as smooth as butter on a hot pan, even under pressure.
With PTFE’s toughness and a reinforced design, these swivel joints outlast traditional options. They’re built to handle thousands of cycles without wearing out.
The non-stick PTFE surface minimizes buildup and wear, cutting down on upkeep.
Paired with high-quality seals, the PTFE lining ensures a tight fit, preventing leaks even in aggressive conditions. It’s like a watertight hatch on a submarine, keeping everything contained.
2” to 12” (DN50 to DN300), covering a wide range of loading arm sizes.
Popular sizes like 3” (DN80) and 4” (DN100) fit most industrial needs.
Up to 4.0 MPa (40 bar or 580 psi), handling high-pressure acid or alkali transfers.
40°C to +200°C (-40°F to +392°F), perfect for hot alkalis or cold chemical storage.
PTFE’s thermal stability shines, outlasting metal in heat.
360 degrees per plane, with 2 to 6 planes depending on the joint’s complexity.
Ensures full flexibility without compromising the seal.
Up to 5,000 GPM (gallons per minute) for large joints, ideal for bulk transfers.
Smaller joints handle 50 to 500 GPM for precision work.
PTFE lining polished to a smooth finish, reducing wear and friction.
Enhances longevity and sealing efficiency.
These specs make PTFE-lined swivel joints versatile enough to tackle everything from small chemical batches to massive acid shipments, all while meeting today’s industrial demands.
Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) offers a non-stick, chemically inert layer that resists acids, alkalis, and solvents. It’s reinforced with fillers like glass or carbon for extra strength, like adding steel beams to a bridge. This lining is the heart of corrosion protection.
Swivel joint’s body is typically made from carbon steel or stainless steel (SS304/SS316L). Carbon steel provides structural strength, while stainless steel adds corrosion resistance—think of it as the sturdy frame holding the PTFE shield.
Complementary seals, often made from Viton or additional PTFE, ensure a tight fit. These work with the lining to block leaks.
This material mix creates a swivel joint that’s as tough as a tank yet flexible enough for constant motion, perfect for acid and alkali battlegrounds.
PTFE-lined swivel joints come in sizes to match your loading arm’s needs.
2” (DN50): Great for small-scale chemical transfers where precision is key.
3” to 4” (DN80 to DN100): The go-to for most industrial applications, like fuel or acid loading.
6” to 8” (DN150 to DN200): Ideal for high-volume moves, such as bulk alkali shipments.
10” to 12” (DN250 to DN300): Heavy-duty options for marine or large-scale refinery use.
Handling sulfuric acid or hydrochloric acid. PTFE-lined swivel joints resist corrosion, keeping chemical transfers safe and leak-free. They’re like the guardians of a hazardous material vault.
For processing alkalis or acidic byproducts, these joints ensure smooth operation under high pressure. They’re the reliable hands moving fuel through the refinery.
Transferring caustic solutions or solvents. The inert PTFE lining prevents contamination, acting like a clean slate for sensitive processes.
Dealing with saltwater and chemical cargoes. SS316L-backed PTFE joints thrive in corrosive marine conditions, like seasoned sailors on the high seas.
Moving acidic or alkaline waste. These joints handle the harshness, keeping disposal systems running smoothly. They’re the tough guys cleaning up the mess.
From chemical plants to marine ports, PTFE-lined swivel joints are the go-to for acid and alkali challenges.
The perks of PTFE-lined swivel joints go beyond the specs. Here’s how they shine:
PTFE laughs at acids and alkalis, extending the joint’s life.
Full rotation keeps loading arms agile, saving time and effort.
Reinforced design withstands thousands of cycles, cutting maintenance costs.
Leak-proof seals protect workers and the environment, a must in 2025’s safety-focused industry.
PTFE-lined swivel joints are tough, but they’re not flawless. Watch out for:
Misalignment can cause leaks or wear.
Some fluorinated solvents can swell the lining.
The high-quality materials come with a higher price tag, but the longevity pays off.
