- 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
- Easy to seal
- Boss couplings supply a convenient threaded fitting to connect two lengths of hose, or a single length to a male or female threaded outlet
- Use with boss washer seal fittings
- A Klingersil C-4401 washer is inserted between the stem and spud
- Recommended for steam service up to 450 deg F
- Worn-out hose couplings can be dangerous
- They should be checked regularly and replace when necessary
