Supercharge your finishing throughput with the PivotLine system
Nearly every shop has had to deal with costly production bottlenecks during the finishing process - until now.
PivotLine, from Guffey Systems, is a manual-rail finishing system that will revolutionize your finishing process.
PivotLine rivals the speed and throughput of an automated line at a fraction of the cost, space, and implementation time.
Customizable and configurable
to fit any space
The PivotLine system can be customized and configured to fit any shop size or budget, and as your shop's volume increases, can easily be expanded
The modular system is fully patented and made up of stationary rails, mobile rails, PivotLine rolling spray hubs, and an assortment of hangers.
PivotLine is an ergonomic solution allowing the finisher to spray vertically at eye level. That means the employee is in an upright position, rather than hunched over flat components
Advantages
- We are launching 4 of our most popular and budget-friendly PivotLine configurations.
- Our Quick Start kits allow you to process around 40 parts at a time and can easily be expanded to meet your needs as your business grows.
- Kits are available for ceiling and floor mounts
- Systems are easy to install and can be up and running in less than a day!

Usage
PivotLine® Components & Add-ons
Stationary Rails
Aluminum rail allows spray hubs to roll smoothly through the spray process. Attachment points allow rail to be suspended from an overhead structure or supported by Floor Stands (shown). Corners allow the rail layout to be configured to your spray booth size and configuration.
- Aluminum rail - 6 ft. length
- 6ft. rails can easily be cut to shorter length if needed
- Use for both ceiling and floor mount
1. Aluminum Rail - 6 ft. length
6ft. rails can easily be cut to shorter length if needed
Use for both ceiling and floor mount
2. Floor Stand
For floor-mounted rail configurations
Floor stands are a good option for spray areas with tall ceilings.
Floor Stands are available with 3 stand-off length options
- Small (48" max material size)
- Medium (72" max material size)
- Large (96" max material size)
3. Rail Support / Joiner
Includes hardware. Connects rail sections and provides an attachment point for floor stand or ceiling mount installation
4. Rail Corners
Corners allow the rail layout to be configured to your spray booth size and configuration
- 45° 1' radius
- 45° 3' radius
- 90° 1' radius
- 90° 3' radius
5. Coupler
Attaches to the end of an open rail to allow coupling of a mobile rail to a stationary rail. Also acts as the mounting point for ceiling or floor installation of the rail
NEW Diverter
Rotating rail disc installs into a stationary rail and allows rolling spray hubs to flow in any direction through a T-junction Simple to install anywhere in a straight rail section, or it can replace a 1' radius corner Prevents spray hubs from dropping out of any rail branch Ideal for enclosed loop systems
PivotLine Rolling Spray Hub
The core component of the PivotLine System. The spray hubs roll smoothly in both Stationary and Mobile Rails and pivot in 90° increments allowing for easy spraying of all sides
Mobile Rail
Used for loading, off-loading, drying, and storage of parts. A key component for maximizing PivotLine efficiency and reducing material handling 20 spray hub capacity Hang multiple parts per T-Bar to increase the capacity of any mobile rail
NEW Compact Mobile Rail
- Used for loading, off-loading, drying, and storage of parts. A key component for maximizing
- PivotLine efficiency and reducing material handling
- Shorter length mobile rail works great for smaller spaces
- Use for hanging multiple heavier items
- 12 spray hub capacity
- Hang multiple parts per T-Bar to increase the capacity of any mobile rail
Twist Top
Insert into stationary and mobile rails to prevent unwanted movement of materials
NEW Heavy-Duty Spray Hub
- For longer life and improved wear in demanding production environments
- Steel rollers and hooks for increased strength and durability
- Use when spraying heavier parts on a consistent basis
NEW Spray Hub Spacer Kit
- Use to add distance between spray hubs on the PivotLine rail
- Use spacer housing alone for an extra 1" pitch between spray hubs (4 1/2" total)
- Use kit with adjustable metal arms to further increase pitch between hubs (from 8 1/4" to 12 1/4" total)
*Rolling Spray Hub not included
Universal Hanger w/screws
For hanging shelves, face frames, and other miscellaneous components
EFC (Spring Clip)
For hanging panels from hinge pockets to hang on T-Bars
Offset Hanger w/screws
For hanging drawer fronts, face frames, and other miscellaneous components
NEW Spindle T-Bar
- Hang multiple spindles on a single T-Bar and reduce material handling
- Different shaped speed holes in a 37" T-Bar provides consistent spacing between hanging parts
- Also allows for the staggering of parts that are hanging adjacent to each other
T-Bar
Hang doors using EFC or Offset Hangers. Group multiple parts together by hanging Offset and Universal Hangers across top of T-Bars
Available in:
- 17" (for use with hinge pitch up to 20")
- 34" (for use with hinge pitch up to 37")
- 46" (for use with hinge pitch up to 49")
NEW Trim Rack
- Compatible with Pivot Point and Pivot Line

- Adjustable height brackets
- Holds 4 levels of trim
- Additional brackets available for purchase
- No more bending over sawhorses to spray
NEW Spindle Hanger
- For use with balusters, columns, or other items requiring finishing on all sides
- Hang multiple spindles on a single T-Bar and reduce material handling
- Allows parts to be freely rotated and allows consistent straight-on spraying toward an exhaust fan
NEW T-Plate
- Simple strong bracket for unusual situations, or for making your own hanger
- Use the 4 holes for holding heavier items that do not require finishing on the backside
- Use center teardrop opening for hanging items using metal "S" hooks ("S" hooks not included)
- Compatible with all spray hubs and fixed mounts
