Overview

Forged threaded bosses for weld-on instrument connections

A threaded boss is a short, thick forged collar tapped with an NPT thread. It is welded to the outside of a pipe, tank or vessel over a drilled hole, and its heavy section supports the threads against the load of a thermowell or gauge. Bosses are made to manufacturer standard, with threads to ASME B1.20.1, and are supplied with a flat base or one contoured to a particular pipe size.

Hamza Fasteners supplies A105 threaded bosses in class 3000 for 1/4 to 2 inch threads. Instrument and mechanical contractors use them for thermowell and RTD connections, pressure transmitters, level bridles, drain valves and air vents on chilled water, steam and process lines across the UAE. Send the thread size, header size and quantity to our Dubai office for a quote.

FAQ

Common questions

Why use a boss for a thermowell?
A thermowell sits in the flow and can carry bending loads and vibration. A boss has a heavier wall than a half coupling, so it supports the thread better and resists distortion. Its low height also keeps the thermowell insertion length predictable.
Will welding distort the boss threads?
Heavy section bosses resist distortion well, but it is still good practice to fit a plug while welding, use moderate heat and check the thread with a gauge or tap afterwards. Avoid long continuous weld runs, which concentrate heat on one side of the thread.
What sizes of threaded boss are available?
Threaded bosses are supplied for 1/4 to 2 inch NPT in class 3000, flat or contoured. Socket weld bosses and threadolets are also available for other branch requirements. Send your full take-off and we will confirm shelf stock in Deira the same day.
How much do threaded bosses cost in Dubai?
Price for threaded bosses depends on size, pressure class, end type and order quantity. Send your list on WhatsApp with size, class, end type and quantity and our team will reply with a same-day price from Deira, Dubai.
Do you deliver threaded bosses across the UAE, GCC and Africa?
We deliver across the UAE from Dubai, usually within one to two working days for stock sizes, and export to GCC countries and East and West Africa. Test certificates travel with the shipment when requested.
Can I get a threaded boss for a small diameter pipe?
Yes. For smaller headers we supply bosses with a base contoured to the pipe OD, which improves fit-up and weld quality. For very small headers relative to the branch, a threadolet or threaded tee may be a better option.
