Cam & Groove Crimp Couplings

Although aluminum cam and groove couplings are strong and lightweight, they are more prone to wear and scratches unless alloyed with other metals. A male nipple (adapter) x hose shank (hose barb) connection is a feature of Type C and Type E aluminum cam and groove crimp fittings. They can be used with Type B, C, and D adapters as well as Type DC dust caps, however they are most frequently used with Type C adapters of the same size. Utilize aluminum camlock couplings with petroleum products, coolants, water, and gasoline.
