Couplings & Fittings

Cam and groove fittings

A cam and groove coupling, also called a "camlock" fitting, is a form of hose coupling popular because it is a simple and reliable means of connecting and disconnecting quickly and without tools.

Pin-lug couplings

Also called "suction hose couplings," these are threaded couplings used for suction or discharge of water or other fluids.

Combination hose nipples

Combination hose nipples are used in a variety of fluid applications. They are available in unplated steel, plated steel, polypropylene, and stainless steel.

Universal air couplings

Also called "Chicago," "CP," or "Crow's Foot" couplings. Used to connect air lines from compressors or other air sources to all types of pneumatic tools and equipment. All 2-lug head connections are of one size for easy interchange.

Ground joint couplings

An all-purpose coupling, the female ground joint consists of a MALE STEM, WING NUT and FEMALE SPUD. The female spud has NPT threads to accept the NPT threads of a rigid connection or male NPT nipple. Widely used for air, water or steam, the ground joint is secured with an interlocking clamp or ferrule.

Sandblast couplings

There are three active sandblast system couplings: NOZZLE HOLDERS that accept the male threaded end of a sandblast nozzle, the THREADED POT END that is connected to the combination air and abrasive mix from the sandblast pot, and HOSE ENDS that are used to make hose-to-hose connections or hose-to-blast pot connections.

Hose menders

Hose menders repair hoses up to and including IDs of 12". After cutting out the damaged hose portion, insert each end of the mender (shanks) into the remaining good ends of the hose.

Push-on fittings

Brass Push-On Fittings are specially manufactured for use with push-on hoses in low pressure applications. No clamp or ferrule is required if properly inserted.

Brass threaded hose fittings

Recommended for low pressure air and water applications. Attachable with ferrules or hose clamps. Also available in stainless steel.

Garden hose fittings

Brass fittings with standard garden hose thread (GHT) for general purpose use. The female end swivels for easy connection. Many adapters are available for making the connection to the pipe thread.

Locking lever couplings

For use with water pumps and irrigation. Locking lever fittings are galvanized quick couplings, each with a double-pin locking lever for smooth closing. Not recommended for use with toxic chemicals. O-Ring is included in all female parts.

Quick detachable couplers

All engagements available.
