This is a Center Swivel Joint, a critical component in the hydraulic system of Volvo excavators, enabling rotational movement between different hydraulic circuits. It is built to meet rigorous OEM quality standards, offering superior sealing and durability over a worn joint that may leak or bind. Operators may observe hydraulic fluid leaks around the center of the machine, or a loss of hydraulic function in the boom, arm, or bucket if the swivel joint fails.
Always verify with serial number before ordering.

Cross-reference part number with serial number before ordering to confirm fitment. Keep original parts until new ones are confirmed correct. Record part numbers replaced for future reference.
Always consult the OEM service manual for model-specific torque values and procedures. WhatsApp our technical team if you need fitment guidance.
The first symptom of a failing swivel joint is often visible hydraulic fluid leakage from the center of the machine. If left unaddressed, the leakage will worsen, potentially leading to a significant loss of hydraulic pressure and function. Continued operation with a leaking swivel joint can contaminate the hydraulic system and cause damage to other components.
Ensure the machine is properly supported and depressurized before attempting to disconnect hydraulic lines. Carefully align the new swivel joint with the mating surfaces to avoid damaging the seals during installation.
Replace all O-rings and seals associated with the swivel joint and inspect the surrounding hydraulic lines for any signs of abrasion or cracking.
