It's Risky to be without a SpeedSwivel
The SpeedSwivel features teeth and sliding segments that engage with the exposed groove on an FDC missing its brass swivel. Firefighters simply spin the easy-to-use rocker lug coupling a few times to complete the connection, restoring the FDC's functionality.
Installation is straightforward and typically does not require a spanner wrench. The SpeedSwivel's design allows for quick and easy attachment to the FDC, enabling rapid deployment in emergency situations.
Developed by a retired fire captain and fire inspector, the SpeedSwivel is trusted by fire departments across the USA and Canada, including major cities like Chicago, Phoenix, Denver, Portland, and Toronto. It is a staple in the inventory of hundreds of fire trucks, providing a critical solution for fire crews.
The SpeedSwivel requires minimal maintenance. Regular inspections should be conducted to ensure the teeth and sliding segments are free of debris and in good working condition. Any signs of wear or damage should be addressed promptly to maintain optimal performance.
For optimal longevity, store the SpeedSwivel in a dry, secure location. An optional protective dust cap is available to safeguard the adapter during truck storage, preventing contamination and damage.
The SpeedSwivel Cap is a versatile accessory designed to protect the SpeedSwivel's moving parts from dust, dirt, debris, and potential damage. Additionally, it serves as a practical training prop, allowing fire crews and first responders to demonstrate how the SpeedSwivel attaches to the ball race of an FDC (Fire Department Connection) with a missing swivel.
The SpeedSwivel Training Snoot is a specialized training tool designed to simulate a vandalized Fire Department Connection (FDC) where the female swivel has been stolen. This device is used in conjunction with the SpeedSwivel to provide a realistic training experience for fire crews and first responders.
