Aluminum Camlock Coupling

Aluminum camlock couplings or aluminum cam & groove couplings are an economical and durable option for quick connect/disconnect coupling for PVC Suction Hoses, industrial hoses and PVC Layflat Hoses used in agricultural irrigation, water transfer of construction and industries, and chemical & petroleum delivery.

Coupling body: aluminum
Handles: brass
MOQ: 200pcs
Pull rings: brass
Thread: NPT, BSP, BST & NPSM available
Working temperature: -101°C to 121°C (-150°F to +250°F )
Working pressure: doesn’t surpass 250 psi at ambient temperature

Aluminum camlock adapter type A

Size: 1/2″ to 8″
Thread: NPT/BSPT/BSPP
Manufacture method: gravity casting

Type A camlock adapters are normally used with Type D couplers, while Type B & C couplers as well as Dust Cap (Type DC) of the same size are available.
Aluminum cam and groove adapters are manufactured by A-A-59326 (superseding MIL-C-27487F) or DIN 2828 and comes from 1/2″ to 8″. They are interchangeable with other related products produced by the standard except 5″ and 8″.

Aluminum camlock coupler type B

Handle and finger rings: stainless steel
Fabrication method: gravity casting
Size: 1/2″ to 8″
Thread: NPT, BSP, BSPP

Type B aluminum camlock coupler is normally used with Type F adapter, sometimes Type A & E and DP (Dust Plug) of identical size.
Aluminum cam and groove couplings make the hose connect/disconnect in a snap and eliminate complicated operation of thread and flange.
You just insert the male adapter into the female coupler until contact is made with the gasket. Then press down the arms to produce a uniform gasket compression.

Aluminum cam & groove coupler type C

Handle and rings: stainless stee
Gaskets: PTFE, viton, EPDM, silicone or as required
Working pressure: less than 250psi
Temperature: -150°F to +250°F (-101°C to 121°C)

Type C aluminum camlock fitting couplers are often found cooperating with Type E adapters but also be used with Type A, F as well as DP of the same size.
The biggest feature of quick hose camlock fitting lies in its high efficiency and safety.

Aluminum camlock adapter type D

Handles & rings: stainless steel
Size: 1/2″ to 8″
Standard: MIL-C-27487/ISO A-A-59326

Type D cam & groove couplers are often used with Type A adapters, and sometimes be used with Type E & F and Type DP (Dust Plug) of the same size.
Type D aluminum camlock coupler ranges from 1/2″ to 8″ according to MIL-C-27487/ISO A-A-59326.

Aluminum camlock adapter type E

Type E aluminum camlock adapters are often used with Type C, B, D & DC (Dust Cap) of identical size.
Camlock couplings comprises of two parts – adapter and coupler. Insert the adapter into coupler of the same size and put down the cam arms, then sealing is finished.

Aluminum camlock adapter type F

Handles rings: available in stainless steel or brass
Standard thread: NPT, BSPP and BSPT
Gaskets: PTFE, Viton, EPDM or as required

Aluminum Type F adapters are normally used with Type B, C, D or DC couplers with the same size. Aluminum camlock fittings have good abrasion resistance and fair corrosion and chemical resistance.

Aluminum camlock dust cap type DC

Handles rings: available in stainless steel or brass
Gaskets: PTFE, Viton, EPDM or as required

Type DC aluminum camlock couplers are used with type A, E and F adapters to seal the end of the connection.

Aluminum camlock adapter type DP

Size: 1/2″ to 8″
Thread: NPT/BSPT/BSPP
Manufacture method: gravity casting

Type DP Aluminum cam & groove male adapter is used to plug into the female coupler such as Type B, C and D couplers.

Applications of Aluminum Camlock Coupling

Agriculture and irrigation systems: Widely used in agriculture, aluminium camlocks play a vital role in irrigation systems, pumps and fertilization processes. Their compatibility with a wide range of hoses and fittings simplifies hose connections and ensures optimal water distribution.

Construction and mining projects: Aluminium camlocks are an essential component in construction and mining activities. They facilitate the transfer of water, slurry and other fluids for dewatering, site preparation and material transport, ensuring efficient project execution.

Industrial fluid transfer: Used in industrial environments, including manufacturing plants, refineries and chemical processing facilities. They provide safe and efficient connections for fluid transfer applications, ensuring smooth operation and minimizing downtime.

Commercial and municipal services:Aluminium camlock fittings are widely used in commercial and municipal services, such as water supply, fire protection and waste management. They provide fast and reliable connections for efficient service delivery and emergency response.

Benefits of Using Aluminum Camlock Couplings

– Lightweight: Aluminum’s light weight compared to heavier materials makes it easier to handle and install.
– Corrosion resistance: Aluminum cam locks are corrosion and rust resistant, maintaining integrity and extending service life even in corrosive environments.
– Cost-effectiveness Aluminum cam locks combine performance and economy, making them an affordable choice for many applications.
– Versatility: They are compatible with a wide range of fluids and operating conditions, providing versatility for fluid handling operations.
