Types of Industrial Fittings
Camlocks, also known as Cam and Groove Couplings are used with both piping and hose applications. The specific benefit of Camlocks is to be able to quickly disconnect or connect to/from piping and hose systems. They come in a variety of materials such as both Aluminum and very durable Plastic. Many different diameters are available depending on what is needed for your project. Camlocks can also come with both male and female threading or barbed for quick and easy connections. A good rule of thumb is to know what you need when you are purchasing it. That being said, Cam Locks come in 6 different categories with corresponding letters.
- Type “A” includes a female threading and a matching male grooved adapter
- Type “B” includes a male threading and a matching female camlock end.
- Type “C”, includes a male hose tail and a female camlock.
- Type “D”, includes a female threading and a female camlock.
- Type “E”, includes a male hose and a male camlock.

Swivel Hose Coupler fittings come in handy, because of the swivel motion that they create. These fittings eliminate twisted hose lines and allow for easier use.
The Adapter fittings allow for you to connect two pieces of hose or pipe. They come in a variety of sizes and threading options.
Dust Plugs and Caps allow you to cap off the end of a pip that is not in use. It is not always suggested to use these on high-pressure systems.
