Ground joint couplings mate a ground male stem to a ground female swivel, creating a metal-to-metal seal that holds under pressure and resists vibration-induced loosening. Weighing 0.04 pounds, the B12 is a compact, single-piece fitting suited for industrial, agricultural, and general fluid-transfer applications. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and industrial maintenance technicians install this type of coupling in steam, water, and air service lines where a reliable threaded connection is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGround joint hose couplings like the B12 are used across a wide range of service environments including steam lines, compressed air systems, water transfer, and general industrial fluid handling. The compact form factor makes it appropriate for tight-space installations and portable hose assemblies. This fitting is typically installed by licensed pipefitters, industrial mechanics, or plumbing professionals in both commercial and light industrial settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGround joint design creates a metal-to-metal seal for secure, leak-resistant connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight construction at 0.04 pounds for easy handling and installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSingle-unit packaging allows for precise inventory control and replacement purchasing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with standard hose coupling systems used in industrial and commercial fluid transfer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or supplemental fitting for standard ground joint hose coupling systems used in industrial and commercial fluid transfer applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation of hose couplings should be performed by a qualified pipefitter, plumber, or industrial mechanic familiar with applicable fluid system codes. Always depressurize and drain the line fully before removing or installing any coupling. Inspect mating ground surfaces for nicks or debris prior to assembly, as surface damage can compromise the metal-to-metal seal. Follow applicable codes such as ASME B31.1 or ASME B31.3 for industrial piping systems when applicable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.04 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40141734\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: DIXON VALVE COUPLING\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: B12\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"DIXON VALVE \u0026 COUPLING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51717682102578,"sku":"B12","price":21.31,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/1387a1cbc85e69f037e155e448d18e22_379b6832-7088-4936-b853-36e57b809314.jpg?v=1788544341","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/dixon-valve-coupling-b12-ground-joint-hose-coupling","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
