Cam & groove couplings - page 1 of 2
The Cam and groove coupling is a simple and effective system to establish direct and perfect tightness between two elements (hose-hose, hose-fixed point). The connection is easily made by inserting the adaptor (male part) into the coupler (female part). The locking is assured by the cams of the coupler. The tightness is made by the constant and uniform pressure of the adaptor on the gasket of the coupler.
Norm: A-A-59326A (before Mil-C-27487) , EN 14420-7 , DIN 2828
The interchangebility between different brands is assured by these norms, with the exception of ½" , 5" and 8".
Alloys: Aluminium, Stainless Steel, Polypropylene, Brass
Seals: NBR (std), PTFE, Viton, Hypalon or EPDM
Applications:
Depends on the chosen alloy: hydrocarbons, chemicals, powders, liquid, fertilizers, paints, water (pure or smudged)
Remark: This coupling is not suitable for steam or pressured air!
