Features
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
Positive metal-to-polymer seal
Leakproof seal forms when the metal head of the stem makes contact with the patented polymer seat in the spud
The non-metallic polymer seat resists most chemicals found in manufacturing facilities, reference the corrosion resistance chart for additional information
Boss couplings supply a convenient threaded fitting to connect two lengths of hose, or a single length to a male or female threaded outlet
Easy to seal
