Swivel joint is a rotational piping joint to performs rotary motion or linear motion in the vertical, horizontal, or forward/backward directions when fluid/gas is transported in pipe line.
360 degrees rotation achieved by comnibation of two row ball bearings and two components, which allows for free movement of pipes while fluid transportation.
TBG manufactures TB-NIIGATA swivel joints for a broad range of process machinery in the chemical, petroleum, aviation, refining, mining, steel, bevarage, paint, as well as daily food, pharmaceutical industries.
A rotary joint is a joint that can form a flow path for water, air, oil, etc., between a fixed pipe and a rotating shaft.
It is sometimes called a rotary joint or rotary union.
Rotary joints make it possible to supply fluid continuously to a rotating body and circulate the fluid inside.
This function can be used to add functions such as cooling and lubrication to the rotating rolls or to supply power source fluid to equipment on the rotating body.
Models to handle under -50 °C or over 30" are also available.
Please contact us for details.
TBG is the only manufacturer and distributor of sanitary swivel joints in Japan and has a long history of working with customers in over 50 industries.
Niigata sanitary swivel joints are designed for hygienic piping applications and are compact and lightweight, making them easy to disassemble, clean, and reassemble for improved process piping maintenance.
In 1950, Niigata Enginering developed an original swivel joint for submerged service to address the Japanese oil industry's needs, designed to accommodate draining lines for floating roof tanks.
Soon, this product became the enabler for safe and reliable operations of 2,600 floating roof tanks at our customers' storage facilities.
High-pressure TB-NIIGATA swivel joints are used in various industries for high-pressure hydraulic, air, and cooling lines. They absorb vibrations and deformations in piping systems.
Extra high-pressure TB-NIIGATA swivel joints are specially designed and built with 2–1/2B–5B triple ball races for extreme pressure and high load scenarios. Use cases include oil drilling, iron, and various industrial machines.
One of Our Best-Selling Models
Low-pressure TB-NIIGATA swivel joints are used in various kinds of installations for operations. They are widely used in loading racks and flexible lines for handling all types of materials.

Sanitary Swivel Joints for Hygenic pipes
Choose from 3 types
• By attaching it to the base of an existing hose, it prevents the hose from being twisted or damaged.
• It is easier to change the outflow direction and route the piping without loosening clamp band .
• Since the hose length and bending radius can be reduced, a compact design is possible, and the piping layout can be easily changed.
• There is no need special tools to assemble and disassemble, which leads to labor-saving.

Roof Drain System for Floatin Roof Tanks
(Conventional)
Niigata floating roof tanks draining systems have a record life expectancy of more than 30 years in operations without significant issues or accidents occurrence.
Their market share is nearly 100% in Japan.
Niigata draining system assembly design allows for permanently stable positioning of the drain inside the tank without possible interference with the floating roof legs when the tank is empty, guaranteeing no mechanical damage of the drain and no abrasion of the tank floor like hose drains would, as a result as not being guided inside the tank.
Roof Drain System for Floatin Roof Tanks
(Single Line)
TBG developed a more economical system using only four doubel seal joints for submerged service for minor drainage tanks or tanks with a smaller roof surface.
Float Suction Skimmers (FSS)
TBG manufactures and designs floating suction units (FSU),
also referred to as floating suction lines (FSL) or floating suction skimmers (FSS), for use in horizontal or vertical,
above-ground storage tanks to extract the upper layer of the cleanest liquid without contamination.
Our FSUs are equipped with robust and durable TB-NIIGATA Swing Joints
with flange connections designed for long, trouble-free service lives for storage tanks of various shapes.

As a moving pipe, it is more rigid than a hose and can handle even the largest variations by simply changing the pipe's length. It can be installed in a small space because its length is extremely short in relation to the required displacement, which is typically a problem for high-pressure hoses.
Our hoses are made of steel pipes and have a specially coated sealing material to ensure high durability and pressure resistance. Steel pipes minimize the risk of rupture, making them exceptionally safe for use in high-pressure fire-extinguishing piping.
Example Fluids:
•Domestic wastewater, air, N2 gas, CO2 gas, LP gas, CFC,halon, etc.
• Oil-based systems such as kerosene and light oil, NH3, etc.
In 2021, TB Global Technologies Ltd. (TBG) was established through the merger of Tokyo Boeki Machinery Ltd. and Tokyo Boeki Engineering Ltd. that was formerly known as Niigata loading systems ltd. and Niigata Engineering ltd.
We have been creating new values by gathering the strengths we have accumulated for more than half a century, and putting together the value chain from marketing to development / manufacturing / sales / after-sales services.
Over 2,000 companies worldwide choose our MADE-IN-JAPAN products
for their safe and stable operation. reliability and case of use.

The use of Niigata ball joints in piping systems offers the following advantages.
Features
• Simultaneous rotation and tilt are possible, allowing the pipe to follow two or more planar movements.
• Longer pipe life due to low-end thrust.
• Reduces the number and weight of anchors and guides in the piping system, resulting in significant cost savings.
• Provides greater functionality in a smaller space than pipe loops.
• It is safe enough to withstand shock and vibration.
• They are meticulously designed to require little maintenance under all conditions of use.
