Question by: Patty T on Dec 30, 2025, 9:10 PM

trying to swap out an old camlock, is this one the male half with 2-1/2" male NPT threads?

Answer by: Customer Support on Jan 1, 2026, 6:38 AM

Youre looking at a male cam and groove adapter with 2-1/2 inch male NPT pipe threads. It mates by sliding into a compatible cam and groove coupler and locking down the cam levers by hand.

Question by: Debbie R on Jul 23, 2025, 4:54 PM

figured i'd ask before ordering -- will this adapter work with a standard cam and groove coupler from a different brand, or is it proprietary to one system?

Answer by: Customer Support on Jul 24, 2025, 9:46 PM

Cam and groove fittings made to standard A-A-59326 or DIN 2828 are interchangeable across manufacturers, so this adapter should mate up with any coupler built to those same standards. The one exception worth knowing is the half-inch and eight-inch sizes, which have no formal standard and often don't play nice between brands. At two-and-a-half inch, you're in the range where interchangeability holds.
