Camlock Applicaiton

Camlock couplings provide a quick way of hose connecting/disconnecting. They are often found in various pumps, tanks, IBCs and equipment where hose changing is frequent. Quick hose coupling reduces downtime and get you rid of complex threads and flanges. However, camlock couplings are not suitable for all applications. They are commonly used in low pressure suction or discharge hoses. When comes to compressed air or gases, camlock fittings are forbidden.

Camlock couplings come into various types – stainless steel, aluminum, polypropylene, glass-fiber reinforced nylon and brass. Different material is designed for different application and feature. Generally speaking, stainless steel 316 cam locks are the best but a little expensive. It is often used in food & sanitary applications or the places where need strong corrosive resistance. Always make sure the material is compatible with the media to be transported. If the coupling reacts with the product, the coupling will be replaced in short time.
