Aluminium Camlock Couplings & Fittings – Full Range Cam & Groove Adaptors

Aluminium Camlock Fittings, also known as cam and groove couplings, are one of the most widely used quick-connect hose fittings for fluid transfer systems across Australia. These camlock couplings allow fast connection and disconnection of hoses without tools and are commonly used for water transfer, petroleum handling, chemical processing, agriculture, and industrial fluid systems. Tas Hose Solutions supplies a complete range of aluminium camlock couplings and adaptors including Types A, B, C, D, E, F, DC, DP and specialty configurations to suit hose, threaded pipework, pumps and tanks.

Aluminium Camlock Fittings – Lightweight, Strong & Built for Fast Fluid Transfer

Aluminium Camlock Fittings provide a fast, reliable, and corrosion-resistant solution for connecting hoses in a wide range of water, fuel, chemical and industrial fluid transfer applications. Camlocks are widely used across agriculture, transport, construction, and industrial processing due to their simple lever-lock connection system that allows hoses to be connected or disconnected in seconds without tools.

Manufactured to the international A-A-59326 (formerly MIL-C-27487) specification, these camlock couplings are precision engineered for full interchangeability with other camlock fittings manufactured to the same standard. This makes them ideal for systems where hoses and fittings may be sourced from multiple suppliers.

Note: The A-A-59326 specification does not apply to ½" (15 mm), 5" (125 mm), and 8" (200 mm) sizes, which are produced to manufacturer specifications.

Constructed from T6 heat-treated aluminium alloy, these fittings deliver excellent strength while remaining lightweight for easy handling. Each coupling features 304 stainless steel cam arms and pins for durability, along with a Buna-N (Nitrile) gasket that provides a reliable seal across most general fluid transfer applications.

Available in a wide range of configurations and sizes from ½" through to 8", aluminium camlocks are one of the most versatile and widely used quick-connect coupling systems in industry.
