The GRACO 563153 is a ball bearing swivel fitting designed to provide a 90-degree angle connection for fluid transfer systems. It is constructed for durability and smooth operation, typically used within GRACO lubrication and fluid handling equipment to allow flexible hose routing and reduce hose kinking. The material is not specified in available sources, but such fittings are commonly made from steel or brass for strength and corrosion resistance.

Key Features:

• Ball Bearing Swivel
• 3/8 inch (9.525 mm)
• Designed for use with GRACO lubrication and fluid handling equipment; compatible with 3/8 inch NPTF threaded connections[2][3][5]
• 90-degree angle for flexible hose routing
• Ball bearing design for smooth rotation and reduced wear
• Threaded connection for secure installation
• Reliable performance in demanding industrial environments

Applications:
Used in industrial lubrication systems, fluid transfer, and spray equipment where flexible hose routing and reduced hose stress are required. Suitable for mining, agriculture, manufacturing, and other heavy-duty applications.

Installation Notes:

• Using genuine GRACO parts ensures compatibility, reliability, and optimal performance within GRACO equipment. Non-genuine parts may compromise system integrity and safety.
• Ensure threads are clean and free of debris before installation
• Use appropriate thread sealant or tape for NPTF connections
• Hand-tighten before final torque to avoid cross-threading
• Inspect for leaks after installation and during routine maintenance
• Regularly inspect for wear, leaks, or damage
• Replace swivel if excessive play or leakage is detected
• Keep fittings clean and lubricated as needed
