Lewmar SWIVEL500F Stainless Swivel Fixed 3/8", 1/2" & 7/16" Chain

The Lewmar SWIVEL500F Stainless Swivel Fixed 3/8", 1/2" & 7/16" Chain is a marine-grade hardware component engineered for winch systems, anchor rigging, and high-load vehicle recovery applications. Built by Lewmar, a trusted name in marine and off-road hardware, this stainless steel swivel accommodates three common chain sizes, making it an essential backup component for serious off-roaders, truck enthusiasts, and anyone running a portable winch setup. Whether you're securing a load during overlanding or setting up a recovery rig, this swivel prevents torque buildup and chain twist that can compromise safety and reduce hardware lifespan.

Constructed from marine-grade stainless steel, the SWIVEL500F features a fixed design that allows 360-degree rotation at the connection point, eliminating the rotational stress that degrades standard chain links under load. The swivel mechanism is precision-machined to handle the dynamic forces encountered in towing, winching, and cargo securing without binding or seizing. Its multi-size compatibility—fitting 3/8", 1/2", and 7/16" chain—means a single swivel works across different rigging configurations. At 1.5 lbs, the compact form factor integrates easily into recovery kits, winch cable assemblies, or permanent mounting systems without adding significant weight to your vehicle.

Off-road mechanics and 4x4 enthusiasts benefit most from this swivel when building custom recovery systems or upgrading existing winch harnesses. The stainless construction resists corrosion in wet, salty, or chemically aggressive environments—critical for vehicles exposed to coastal terrain, winter salt roads, or prolonged wet storage. Installation is straightforward: insert the appropriate chain size into the fixed eyes and secure with standard chain pins or shackles. Compatibility extends to any anchor point rated for the corresponding chain size, making this an ideal universal addition to emergency recovery kits, permanent winch setups, or modular rigging systems for trucks, Jeeps, and utility vehicles.
