They are also widely used for air, water, fluid petroleum, chemicals and liquid petroleum gas up to 1 in ID | Boss couplings can be applied to many types of rubber, synthetic, plastic, metallic or semi-metallic hose
  • The spud part of the coupling serves as one half of the connection and is usually fixed to the equipment
  • The stem part that is clamped to the hose is the other half
  • 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

  • Use with boss washer seal fittings
  • A Klingersil C-4401 washer is inserted between the stem and spud
