McMaster 5360K72 Interlocking-Clamp Hose Adapter for Steam for 3/4" Hose ID, 1-5/16" Maximum Hose OD, 3/4 NPT Female

Also known as ground-joint couplings and boss couplings, these fittings are designed for high-pressure steam heating, humidification, and washdown applications. Insert the barbed end of the fitting into rubber hose, then position the interlocking clamp over the hose and bolt into place with a torque wrench. The clamp firmly grips the hose as it locks into the ring of the barbed end, creating a leak tight seal. The interlocking clamps are not reusable. Fittings are strong and durable with fair corrosion resistance.

Fittings with a female threaded end have a hex bushing (also known as a female spud) that connects to a male interlocking-clamp hose fitting. Replace the hex bushing with a hex nipple (sold separately) to connect two female fittings; the hex nipples are also known as double spuds.

Warning: There is no valve in these couplings. Stop the flow of steam before you disconnect the hose line.
