  • Boss™ couplings are all-purpose hose couplings, universally recommended for steam hose connections
  • Boss™ couplings can be applied to many-types of rubber, synthetic, plastic, metallic or semi-metallic hose
  • Boss™ ground joint complete couplings supply a convenient threaded fitting to connect two lengths of hose or a single length to a male or female threaded outlet
  • The stem part that is clamped to the hose is one-half of the Boss™ ground joint connection
  • The Boss™ ground joint spud part of the coupling serves as the other half and is usually fixed to the equipment
  • The two halves are connected or disconnected by rotating the wing nut on the spud
  • When connected they achieve both a mechanical and a pressure seal
  • Leak-proof seal forms when the metal head of the stem makes contact with the patented polymer seat in the Boss™ ground joint spud
  • Easy to seal

Applications: For steam hose connections, air, water, fluid petroleum, chemicals and liquid petroleum gas up to 1 in ID

Safety Notes:

  • Worn-out hose couplings can be dangerous.
  • They should be checked regularly and replace when necessary.
  • Each coupling user should review applications and add safety devices where indicated.
  • Pressurized steam is an extremely dangerous commodity.
  • Only hose, fittings, clamps and accessory items that have been approved for steam service should ever be used!
  • Never use an unapproved item for steam service.
  • Always follow the manufacturer's product recommendations for pressurized steam handling.
