Can the GT swivel connector with GW BSP/GZ BSPT, nickel-plated steel, type 1200SR2 handle continuous rotations or only slow/oscillating movements?

The GT swivel connector with GW BSP/GZ BSPT, nickel-plated steel, type 1200SR2 is specified for rotational movement or oscillations and explicitly lists "Rotations: slow, oscillating." That indicates it is designed for intermittent or limited-angle back-and-forth motion rather than continuous, high-speed 360Â° rotation. Key implications: - Suitable: slow continuous turning with low speed and limited cycles may be possible, but only within intended slow/oscillating use. - Not suitable: sustained, high-speed continuous rotation or applications requiring unlimited 360Â° rotation (e.g., rotary unions designed for continuous swivel under full pressure). - Constraints: sealing material (NBR) and design limit temperature and pressure performance under rotary stress; long-term continuous rotation at pressure could accelerate wear, leakage, or failure. Conclusion: The GT swivel connector with GW BSP/GZ BSPT, nickel-plated steel, type 1200SR2 is intended for slow/oscillating movements and should not be used for continuous, high-speed rotation unless manufacturer confirms suitability for your specific operating speed, pressure, temperature, and duty cycle.

Is the GT swivel connector with GW BSP/GZ BSPT, nickel-plated steel, type 1200SR2 suitable for fluids up to 350 bar and temperatures up to +200Â°C?

Yes. The GT swivel connector with GW BSP/GZ BSPT, nickel-plated steel, type 1200SR2 is suitable for fluids at temperatures up to +200Â°C and for working pressures in the range of 200â350 bar (specific maximum depends on joint size). Note: sealing material is NBR and rotations are intended for slow or oscillating movement; ensure your fluid compatibility with NBR before use.

Does the GT swivel connector with GW BSP/GZ BSPT, nickel-plated steel, type 1200SR2 use NBR seals suitable for my fluid?

GT swivel connector with GW BSP/GZ BSPT, nickel-plated steel, type 1200SR2 uses NBR (nitrile rubber) seals according to the provided description. NBR is generally suitable for mineral oils, hydraulic fluids, water, air and many greases, and performs well up to about +100â120Â°C continuous (short peaks higher), but the specification here lists operating temperature up to +200Â°C. this is unusually high for standard NBR and suggests either special high-temperature NBR or an error; standard NBR typically degrades above ~120Â°C. To determine suitability for your fluid: - Check fluid type: NBR is compatible with petroleum-based oils, many hydraulic fluids and fuels; it is not suitable for strong acids/alkalis, ketones, esters, chlorinated hydrocarbons, brake fluids DOT 5.1/5, and some synthetic oils. - Check temperature: If your system approaches or exceeds ~120Â°C, standard NBR may fail; verify whether the manufacturer supplies a high-temperature NBR variant or alternative seals (e.g., FKM/Viton for higher temperatures and aggressive fluids). - Check pressure and dynamic conditions: The joint lists working pressure 200â350 bar and slow/oscillating rotation; ensure NBR dynamic compatibility at your operating pressure and motion profile. Conclusion: GT swivel connector with GW BSP/GZ BSPT, nickel-plated steel, type 1200SR2 uses NBR seals. If your fluid is a typical mineral/hydraulic oil at temperatures below ~100â120Â°C, NBR is likely suitable. If your fluid is aggressive (solvents, strong chemicals) or temperatures approach +200Â°C as stated, contact the manufacturer to confirm the seal compound or request a compatible alternative (e.g., FKM) before use.
