Safety Alert - Hose, Couplings, and Hose Assemblies All Straub couplings require the correct use of a torque wrench for a safe and proper installation. Straub couplings must be torqued to the specified value as printed on each individual coupling. Failure to do so can result in serious injury or death. 

Not for steam or refrigerant service.
