3" Type DC Camlock Dust Cap

Camlock fittings, commonly referred to as cam and groove couplings, are quick-connect hose couplings designed for fast and efficient connection and disconnection of hoses or pipes in a wide range of fluid transfer operations. Each fitting consists of two essential parts: a male adaptor and a female coupler.

The male adaptor features a circumferential groove, while the female coupler is equipped with cam arms that retract to allow insertion of the adaptor. Once released, the arms snap into place, ensuring a secure and reliable seal.

These fittings are widely used across sectors such as agriculture, petroleum, chemical handling, and food processing, where frequent and safe disconnections are crucial. Camlock fittings are available in multiple materials including aluminium, stainless steel, brass, and polypropylene. This product is manufactured from polypropylene (PP), so please confirm its suitability for your intended application.

Camlock couplings provide several key advantages that make them highly versatile and practical:

• Efficient Connection: They enable swift hose or pipe attachment and detachment, significantly reducing downtime during installation or maintenance.
• Leak-Proof Seal: When properly engaged, they ensure a secure connection that prevents leaks, enhancing safety and minimising waste or contamination.
• System Compatibility: These fittings are designed for compatibility across different sizes and types, supporting flexibility and ease of integration with various setups.

This specific model is a 3" Type DC camlock fitting. Type DC couplers feature a female camlock end with a dust cap closure. These fittings, also known as dust caps, are used to seal and protect the ends of camlock couplers when not in use, helping to prevent ingress of dirt, debris, or other contaminants.
