Dixon® Ground Joint Spud, Series: Boss™, Spud, 3 in Nominal, MNPT, 450 deg F, Iron, Plated, 7-3/4 in W x 10-1/32 in H

Features:

• The spud part of the coupling serves as one half of the boss ground joint 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
• Boss couplings are all-purpose hose couplings, universally recommended for steam hose connections, they are also widely used for air, water, fluid petroleum, chemicals and liquid petroleum gas up to 1 in ID
