Question by: Clint C on Oct 6, 2025, 1:19 PM

got a 1-1/2 camlock setup for liquids, is this the piece that slides into the coupler and you flip the arms down?

Answer by: Customer Support on Oct 8, 2025, 6:23 AM

To couple it, you slide the male adapter into the female coupler and press the cam levers down with normal hand pressure. To uncouple, lift the cam arms and pull the adapter back out.

So this adapter, it threads onto a female NPT pipe, right? Just making sure I'm picturing it right before I order.

Answer by: Customer Support on Jun 15, 2025, 8:43 PM

That's correct. This adapter features male cam and groove on one side and female NPT threads on the other, allowing you to connect a cam and groove fitting to a standard female NPT pipe thread.

Question by: Jimmy H on Jan 10, 2026, 4:24 PM

these cam and groove fittings – are they safe to hook up to an air compressor line, or is that a no-go?

Answer by: Customer Support on Jan 12, 2026, 6:29 AM

Air service is not an option with these. Cam and groove couplings like this one are strictly for liquid transfer. Using them on compressed air lines is a known safety hazard and goes against the product's rated application. Same goes for steam. If you've got an air line that needs a quick-connect solution, you'd want to look at fittings built specifically for pneumatic service.
