In the beginning, swing joints were used to make pipe connections which also relieved stress in the connection at the same time. To make it work, one threaded connection must tighten, and another must loosen. The swing joint was made of a series of carbon steel 90-degree elbows. And these elbows were installed in a stair-stepping fashion. However, due to the involvement of multiple threads, there always remained the potential for leakage. Besides, this method offered limited flexibility and exposed the bare steel in the ground, causing corrosion issues.
