Description
This Swivel Thrust S/S 4 T SWL bearing is designed for applications where rotation under high axial load is required - for example, tackle systems, anchor rigs, boom supports, or heavy-duty marine fittings. Built in stainless steel with a thrust-bearing or bronze-bushing interface, the unit offers a safe working load around 4 tonnes (SWL = Safe Working Load) and is engineered to handle both axial loading and swivel rotation under load. For Irish marine and sailing use -where launch loads, trailer stress, saltwater corrosion, and frequent handling all place strain on hardware - this swivel thrust bearing provides robust performance and longevity.
Features
- Stainless steel construction (S/S) offering strong corrosion resistance for marine environments in Ireland
- Thrust bearing or bronze-bushing interface allowing rotation under load with reduced wear
- Rated for ~4 tonne safe working load (4 T SWL) - suitable for demanding rigging or structural uses
- Swivel design to reduce torsional stress and fatigue on connected hardware, blocks, lines or shackles
- Ideal upgrade or maintenance part for fleets, clubs, training rigs, or serious cruisers where reliability and longevity matter
