Cam-and-groove couplings, commonly known as Camlock fittings, provide a fast and secure way to join hoses and pipes in fluid-transfer systems. Each assembly comprises a male adaptor with a circular groove and a female coupler fitted with pivoting cam arms.
To connect, retract the coupler’s arms, insert the male adaptor into the groove, then release the arms to lock firmly in place, creating a leak-resistant seal.
Widely used across agriculture, oil, chemical and food industries, Camlock fittings are available in aluminium, stainless steel, brass and polypropylene. These particular fittings are moulded from polypropylene—please confirm its suitability for your application.
Key advantages include:
-
Rapid Connection: Enables quick coupling and decoupling, reducing downtime.
-
Leak-Proof Seal: Locks securely to prevent leaks and contamination.
-
Interchangeable Standards: Standardised sizes ensure compatibility with other Camlock components.
This is a 3″ Type A Camlock coupling, featuring a male groove-ring adaptor paired with a matching 3″ BSP female thread. Ideal for linking hoses or pipework to tanks, pumps and other equipment in fluid-transfer setups.
