Single-Channel Stainless Steel Infusion Swivels

Single channel stainless steel swivels are autoclavable and may be reused hundreds of times. Self-adjusting seals, at the heart of every swivel, actually improve with use. All stainless steel models include a universal swivel-to-tether clamp that connects to all of our standard spring tethers.

Our standard swivels are typically used with rats and mice, but work with rabbits, guinea pigs and, with a strain relief (61-0026), larger animals as well. The standard swivels are manufactured in a variety of sizes.

• Lifetime warranty on single channel swivels 
• Fully autoclavable
• Tether included

About Harvard Apparatus/Instech Swivels

The swivel, a device that rotates to keep the cannula from tangling, is a critical part of any continuous animal infusion system. The Harvard/Instech Fluid Swivels have been in laboratory use for more than 30 years and have earned a reputation as the finest in the industry. Every swivel is precision machined to ensure ease of rotation, durability and reliability. The design minimizes internal dead volume and eliminates stagnant regions along the fluid path. Fluids passing through the swivel touch only stainless steel tubing and special self-adjusting PTFE seals.
