Camlock fittings, also known as cam and groove couplings, are quick-release hose connectors designed for fast attachment and detachment of hoses or pipes across a range of fluid transfer applications. They comprise two primary parts: a male adapter and a female coupler. The male adapter features a grooved ring around its circumference—hence the name "cam and groove"—while the female coupler has cam arms which, when pulled back, allow insertion of the male adapter. Releasing the cam arms locks the connection securely in place.
These fittings are widely used in sectors such as agriculture, petroleum, chemical processing, and food industries, where frequent hose connections and disconnections are required without sacrificing safety or efficiency. Please note that these camlock fittings are made from polypropylene (PP); ensure this material suits your intended application.
Camlock fittings offer numerous advantages that have contributed to their broad adoption across industries:
Rapid and Simple Connection: Allow quick connecting and disconnecting of hoses or pipes, saving valuable time during installation and maintenance—especially useful where frequent changes are needed.
Reliable Seal: When correctly engaged, camlock fittings form a secure, leak-proof seal, minimising the risk of spills and contamination—essential where fluid safety and integrity are critical.
Interchangeability: Designed to be compatible within their size and type ranges, these fittings offer flexibility and convenience, enabling easy integration with various systems and equipment.
This kit includes both Type A and Type C camlock fittings. Multiple sizes are available to suit different requirements.
