A technique facilitates enhanced sealing capability in a space saving format when utilizing a plurality of uniquely constructed seals. As a result, the seals are useful in swivels and other types of structures to provide secure sealing between seal surfaces while reducing the overall seal area. Each seal comprises a body having a seal base combined with lips which may be activated when the activation fluid is supplied under pressure. In swivel applications, the seals may be constructed in a vertical orientation as axial face seals. The vertical orientation of the seals enables construction of the swivel with a reduced cross-section and thus a reduced hydraulic loading.

A cast body for a pipe fitting includes a first body end and a second body end disposed opposite from the first body end. The body defines an axis extending from the first body end to the second body end, an inner body surface defining a fitting bore that extends through the body, and an outer body surface spaced from the inner body surface at a predetermined wall thickness. At a first location on the axis, the inner body surface is a first distance and the outer body surface is a third distance from the axis, and at a second location on the axis that is proximate to the first body end, the inner body surface is a second distance from the axis that is greater than the first distance and the outer body surface is a fourth distance from the axis that is less than the third distance.

An apparatus is provided herein. The apparatus includes a support member, a supply channel, a return channel, a supply port to provide a fluid to the supply channel, a return port to receive the fluid from the return channel, at least two port fittings, a first sleeve, and a second sleeve. The first sleeve is connectable to one of the at least two port fittings and forms a fluid tight seal between the first sleeve and the supply channel. The second sleeve is connectable to the other of the at least two port fittings and forms a fluid tight seal between the second sleeve and the return channel.

A rotary multiport greasing valve having an outer sleeve and an inner sleeve within the outer sleeve. The outer sleeve has at least one inlet port and at least 2 outlet ports. The inner sleeve has an inlet port, a central passageway, and an outlet port. The inner sleeves inlet port is fluidly connected to the outer sleeve's inlet port. The inner sleeve rotates within the outer sleeve so that the inner sleeves outlet port is circumferentially aligned with a selected outer sleeve outlet port creating a fluid pathway from the outer sleeve inlet port into the inner sleeve's inlet port through the central passageway through the inner sleeve's outlet port and finally through the outer sleeves outlet port to create an open flowpath. In certain instances, the inner sleeve inlet port is longitudinally shifted so as not to align with any portion of an outlet sleeve outlet port.

A multi-fitting rotatable fluid connection apparatus comprising a fluid entry fitting and first and second fluid discharge fittings. The fluid entry fitting comprises a first end connector threaded for attachment to a fluid source, and first and second distribution connectors. The first fluid discharge fitting has a first intake connector which receives fluid from the first distribution connector. A first rotation member is coupled between the first intake connector and the first distribution connector such that the first fluid discharge fitting is rotatable about a first axis of rotation. The second fluid discharge fitting has a second intake connector which receives fluid from the second distribution connector. A second rotation member is coupled between the second intake connector and the second distribution connector such that the second fluid discharge fitting is rotatable about a second axis of rotation.
