Frequently Answers and Questions

What pull rod should be used for 5/8" and 3/4" couplings?

For 5/8" and 3/4" couplings, use 15ROSTROD.

Why is accurate hose O.D. measurement important?

Accurate measurement ensures the correct ferrule is selected; incorrect ferrules can cause coupling failures.

What should you do if the gauge reads 10,000 PSI before expansion is complete?

Stop and contact Dixon for further assistance.

How do you install the thrust plate?

Slide the thrust plate over the pull rod (recess facing outward), align holes with dowel pins on 15ROSTPA, and slide until it contacts the face.

Do stems need additional lubrication?

No, stems are pre-lubricated from the factory; no additional lubricant is needed.
