1.25" Type E Camlock Hose Tail Adapter

Camlock fittings, commonly referred to as cam and groove couplings, are quick-connect hose systems used to efficiently attach and detach hoses or pipes in various fluid handling operations. They comprise two primary parts: a male adapter and a female coupler.

The male adapter features a circumferential groove, while the female coupler has cam arms that open to receive the adapter. Once the adapter is inserted and the arms are closed, a secure and reliable connection is formed.

These fittings are widely used in sectors such as agriculture, petrochemicals, chemicals, and food manufacturing—especially where repeated and fast connections are necessary without sacrificing safety or performance. Camlock couplings are available in materials such as aluminium, stainless steel, brass, and polypropylene. These specific fittings are made of PP (polypropylene), so ensure they are suitable for your application.

Key advantages of camlock fittings include:

• Fast and Simple Coupling: Their quick-connect nature streamlines installation and removal, ideal for operations requiring frequent equipment changes or servicing.
• Leak-Proof Design: When locked, they form a secure seal, minimising leaks and reducing the chance of contamination—essential in sensitive applications.
• Cross-Compatible: Designed to be compatible with standardised sizes and types, camlock fittings ensure hassle-free integration across different systems and setups.

This is a 1.25" Type E camlock fitting. Type E camlocks are composed of a male camlock adapter on one end and a hose tail (barbed end) on the other. These are typically used for connecting hoses in systems where quick, efficient, and tight connections are critical for fluid handling and transfer.
