Coxreels® Upgraded Multi-Lobe Seals

Coxreels is proud to announce a seal upgrade to the nitrile 1.5” and 2” inline swivels with advanced multi-lobe sealing technology. The enhanced seals are designed to maximize seal integrity, improve overall seal performance, and maximize seal life. In-depth testing has shown that the performance of the multi-lobe seals exceeds that of the standard O-ring, cup, and T-seals for large capacity fluid handling and high volume delivery in both high and low pressure applications. Additionally, the new seal geometry has a better resistance to compression set, which is a leading cause of premature seal failure.
