A Swivel Ring Flange is a flange assembly designed with a rotating outer ring. The swivel ring can rotate around the hub or inner flange body, allowing bolt holes to be aligned easily with the mating flange during installation.
This design is especially useful when pipe rotation is difficult or impossible, such as subsea pipelines, offshore platforms, marine piping, skid-mounted equipment, and field installation projects.
Compared with a standard fixed flange, a swivel ring flange helps reduce installation time, alignment stress, and bolting difficulty.
