Mini Swivel

The DMM Mini Swivel (Axis Mini Swivel) is an extremely compact swivel for effective management of torsion in rope and rigging systems, ideal where minimal length is crucial. Made with CNC-machined aluminium components and high-quality bearings for smooth, reliable rotation under tough conditions.

This mini swivel is perfect for use between carabiners, textile elements such as slings, or combinations in between. The eyes can be crimped with Prest-in aids, spliced in, pressed or mounted in another way as required. The design minimises the total length of the system while providing full freedom of rotation and protecting against twisting in ropes.[5][6]

Features

• Textile-friendly – Large radii on the eyes protect rope and textiles from wear.
• CNC-machined aluminium – High precision for maximum durability and low weight.
• User-maintainable grease nipple – Grease port for extended bearing life.
• Double-locking axles in high-strength stainless steel – Exceptional durability and safety.
• Roller thrust bearings – Provide smooth and effective rotation even under load.
• Compact design – Takes up minimal space in the rigging system.
