Where to buy Nitto swivel?
Does anyone know where I can purchase one of these Nitto swivels on-line?
Or this generic brand...

Don't know about on-line, but SuperCheap Auto are now carrying Nitto fittings.
Genuine ones, not just supposedly compatible ones.
Cheers,
Andrew

Check out Trade Tools if you have one near you or use their website - I recently purchased an aluminium block type for under $10 for the fitting.

Woodwould, why do you want the swivel joiner? I had the problem of getting a static line onto a reel and just used an ordinary Nitto straight male/female joiner. That was fifteen years ago and it still doesn't leak.

I want to bung one into the inlet of my nail gun to make it more compliant when banging things together in confined spaces.
I've actually tracked some down and they are currently in the mail and heading my way.
I'll report on them when they arrive..

WW, yesterday I bought the exact Nitto one in your first post from Supa Cheap for $12.99 - there were about 6 on the hook. Marked as a genuine Nitto part not as being able to fit Nitto connectors as often is claimed.
After seeing your sample I chose to purchase one as it appears to have less bulk than mine.
Probably too late to help you out but at least you know that they are available.
Regards,
Bob

Oops! I forgot about this thread.
My swivels arrived and they're the ones in the bottom picture above and don't actually swivel very much! I haven't measured the actual angularity they're capable of, but I'd term them "flexible". They're bettern than a rigid connection, so they'll do for now.
Thanks for the heads-up Bob38S, I'll see if TBO can pick up some of the genuine swivels for me from our nearest Supa Cheap..
