Dixon Valve
Boss® | Boss Ground Joint Stem

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" ID.

Boss couplings can be applied to many types of rubber, synthetic, plastic, metallic or semi-metallic hose.
Specifications for Variant SKU: RGB26 Dixon
Brand: Boss
Shape (Orientation): Straight
Ends Configuration: 2in Hose Barb
Material(s): 316 Stainless Steel
Features:
  • Easy to seal.
  • 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.
  • Leakproof seal forms when the metal head of the stem makes contact with the patented polymer seat in the Boss Ground Joint spud.
Use:
  • 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.
  • Use with Boss Clamps.
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.
  • Only use the crimp style shanks with the crimp style sleeves and ferrules.
  • Due to differences in dimensions and tolerances for safety reasons, do not interchange other manufacturers' products with Dixon® products. Pressure rating is based on the seal of the mating part.
Specifications:
  • Recommended for steam service up to 450°F (232°C).
