A universal swivel body for a fluid handling hose connector has threaded inlet and outlet ends connected by an axial fluid passageway and capable of attachment to a stationary fluid supply line and a rotating fluid service line. The axial fluid passageway has a number of internal circumferential sealing surfaces, each of which is sized and located to provide a fluid tight seal in cooperation with a compliant seal ring and with a corresponding sealing surface on a swivel adapter designed for a particular working pressure. The outlet end of the swivel adapter is capable of rotation with respect to the swivel body so that the device can be used with a hose reel.
