ABSTRACT:
An environmental impervious swivel which provides a low friction bearing surface while retarding the ingress of any environmental contaminants. One bearing surface is formed typically polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). The connecting members may be eyes, threaded shafts or any other fastener type desired. The swivel is constructed of two major components, namely a cylinder connected by a shank to a connecting member, and a piston connected by another shank to another connecting member. The swivel is assembled by placing a (PTFE) split bushing over the piston shank, inserting the piston into the cylinder and rolling over the open end of the cylinder.
