Cam-and-Groove Hose Couplings for Abrasive Material

Made of ductile iron, these couplings are tough enough to handle sand, cement, and other abrasive solids and slurries. They resist impact and wear better than aluminum and brass couplings. Use their cam-and-groove fittings to quickly connect and disconnect medium- to large-diameter hose lines. To connect, insert the plug into the socket and press the levers down. The levers fit snugly into the groove on the plug’s body and force the plug against the gasket, forming a tight seal. To disconnect, lift both levers and pull out the plug. A complete coupling consists of a plug and a socket (both sold separately).
Plugs with male threaded end are also known as F adapters.
Plugs with female threaded end are also known as A adapters.
Plugs with barbed end are also known as E adapters. Insert the barbed end into plastic or rubber hose and secure with a clamp.
Sockets with male threaded end are also known as B couplers.
Sockets with female threaded end are also known as D couplers.
Sockets with barbed end are also known as C couplers. Insert the barbed end into plastic or rubber hose and secure with a clamp.
Note: To ensure a correct fit, make sure that the plug and socket have the same coupling size.
Warning: Relieve all pressure before disconnecting the couplings. Do not use cam-and-groove couplings with compressed air or gas.

Dry Abrasive-Material Hose Fittings
Use these fittings with sand, steel shot, and other abrasive material. To connect, apply lubrication inside the long end of the fitting, then slide it over rubber hose, twisting until the hose is flush with opening of the fitting. Then use the included fasteners to screw the fitting in place. Fittings have a unique claw-style head that connects to other abrasive-material hose fittings with a quarter twist. They are aluminum, which is lightweight with good corrosion resistance.
Note: Fittings are only for use with abrasive-material hose.
