SWIVEL RING-TRIANGLE

Description

Gloma Nautica Swivel Ring–Triangle

The Swivel Ring–Triangle from Gloma Nautica is an essential component in modern rigging and anchoring systems where controlled rotation, strength, and corrosion resistance are crucial. Forged from high-grade AISI 316 stainless steel, this swivel is built to meet the intense demands of marine environments and industrial safety applications, offering a secure, tangle-free connection between asymmetrical fittings. Manufactured in Spain and backed by Gloma Nautica’s tradition of quality and reliability, it delivers dependable performance where failure is not an option (glomanautica.com).

This swivel features a circular ring on one end and a triangular eye on the other, joined by a smoothly rotating central axis. The round ring allows multi-directional flexibility and is ideal for connecting ropes, hooks, or chains, while the triangle provides a broad, stable interface that spreads tension evenly across slings or webbing. This configuration is especially useful in dynamic systems where different gear types need to connect without risking twist, tangling, or undue wear.

Unlike mass-produced cast components, Gloma’s swivel is precision-forged for maximum mechanical integrity. Forging enhances grain alignment within the metal, producing a part that not only withstands high loads but offers a telltale deformation if overstressed—adding a safety margin critical in lifting and anchoring operations. The use of AISI 316 stainless steel ensures superior resistance to pitting, rust, and stress corrosion cracking, even after prolonged saltwater exposure.

The swivel joint itself is engineered with low-friction bushings or stainless-steel bearings (model-dependent), allowing for consistent rotation under load. This helps keep ropes or chains from twisting under torque, protecting both the hardware and surrounding rigging equipment. The result is smoother operation, increased longevity, and reduced maintenance across all connected components.

These swivels are available in a range of sizes to accommodate different rope diameters, chain gauges, and tensile strength requirements. Each unit is tested for Working Load Limit (WLL) compliance, with strict European quality controls and batch traceability. The polished finish is not just cosmetic—it plays a functional role in resisting biofouling and promoting easy inspection.

The Swivel Ring–Triangle is frequently used in anchor chains, safety harnesses, sailboat rigging, lifting gear, and pulley systems—anywhere a rotating yet secure connection is needed between components of differing geometry. Its hybrid configuration ensures high adaptability in both vertical and horizontal orientations, making it a versatile tool across multiple industries.
