These joints have a rotating shaft with threads on one end that connect to a continuously revolving drum, roller, or other rotating equipment. Use them to transfer hot and cold materials from your supply line. They are for two-way flow and are meant to be used when you need the supply line and the return line to be on the same side of your equipment. Joints are stainless steel for excellent resistance to corrosion caused by fluid flowing through them.
If your drum rotates counterclockwise as you face the connecting end, you should select a rotating joint with right-handed threads. If your drum rotates clockwise as you face the connecting end, you should select a rotating joint with left-handed threads.
