Clamp type coupling NF EN 14423

Clamp type coupling assemblies for use with steam hoses rated for pressures up to 18 bar

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 onto the spud.
When connected they achieve a mechanical, as well as, a pressure seal.

Services :

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.
Couplings can be applied to many types of rubber, synthetic, plastic, metallic or semi-metallic hose.
Consult the factory for specific media capabilities.

Purpose :

Couplings supply a convenient threaded fitting to connect two lengths of hose, or a single length to a male or female threaded (NPT) outlet.

Material :

• Stem: ¼” - 1” plated steel, 1¼” - 4” plated iron, 6” tubular steel
• Spud: ¼” - 1” plated steel, 1¼” - 6” plated iron
• Wing nut: ¼” - 1” plated steel, 1¼” - 6” plated iron

Seal Types :

• Ground joint: copper or polymer seats
• Washer: Klingersil® C-4401
