Product Description
Camlock fitting, also referred to as camlock coupling, is a type of hose coupling to connect two hoses or pipes together without any tools. They are commonly used in a broad range of industries to transfer fluids, powders, or pellets, especially in low-pressure fluid handling applications. Camlock couplings contain a male and female end as well as arms to help lock the ends together when connected. The purpose of the safety pins is to keep the cam arms from unintentional disconnection while in use. Camlock couplings are primarily made of different materials including stainless steel, brass, or aluminum.

How does a camlock work?
A male adapter and a female coupler of the coupling are required to make a connection.
Step 1 Insert the male adapter of the same size into the female coupler
Step 2 Close both arms and handles at the same time
Step 3 Disconnect the handles and take out the male adapter
