A swivel includes two heads rotatably mounted to one another with a bearing arrangement including at least two angular contact bearings arranged to receive a tension loading, and one angular contact bearing arranged in an opposite direction to receive a compression loading. The swivel is attachable, such as with a clevis, to underground drilling equipment for use in pulling a cable or conduit during a widening operation. A calcium-based grease lubricates the bearings. Periodic flushing with calcium-based grease is through a grease zerk and two single lip seals. A separate center pin for mounting the inner races of the bearings is threadably mounted to one of the heads, wherein an unthreaded portion of the shaft is positioned in a counterbore in the head.
