Female Camlock Fitting - Male Threaded End in Brass - Type B

The Female Camlock Fitting Type B in Brass with Male Threaded End (Reference: 3482) represents excellence in quick coupling for industrial and agricultural applications. This precision technical component combines the robustness of brass with the practicality of the Camlock system, offering a professional connection solution adapted to the strictest requirements.

Applications and benefits of type B Camlock fitting

This female Camlock fitting finds its place in numerous professional applications where speed and reliability of connection are essential. Food processing industries use it for food-grade liquid transfers, while agricultural operations adopt it for their irrigation systems and liquid fertilizer distribution.

Service stations and petroleum depots appreciate its resistance to hydrocarbons, while chemical industries value its compatibility with numerous chemical products. Its brass construction guarantees excellent corrosion resistance, even in saline or humid environments.

The male threaded end allows for traditional screwed connection on one side, while the female Camlock system enables quick connections and disconnections on the other side, thus optimizing versatility of use.

Technical specifications and materials

Machined from premium quality brass compliant with European standards, this type B fitting offers exceptional mechanical strength. The brass used has an optimal copper and zinc content, guaranteeing excellent ductility and remarkable corrosion resistance.

The cam locking system is designed to withstand high service pressures while maintaining perfect sealing. The stainless steel cams ensure firm and durable locking, resistant to wear even after thousands of connection-disconnection cycles.

The male threaded end complies with international threading standards, guaranteeing optimal compatibility with existing equipment. The careful surface finish limits corrosion risks and facilitates cleaning, a crucial aspect in food processing applications.

The integrated seals are designed to resist temperature variations and maintain their flexibility over time, ensuring durable sealing even in difficult conditions.

Installation and optimal use

Installing the type B Camlock fitting is particularly simple and requires no specialized tools for the Camlock part. The male threaded end screws directly onto the receiving equipment while respecting the recommended tightening torque to avoid over-tightening that could damage the threads.

For the Camlock connection, simply engage the corresponding male fitting into the female part, then fold down the locking cams. An audible click confirms correct locking. This operation can be performed with one hand, even with protective gloves.

Regular maintenance consists of checking the condition of the seals and cleaning the contact surfaces. Light greasing of the cams with compatible grease can extend the life of the locking mechanism.

For food applications, cleaning according to HACCP protocols is recommended. Brass lends itself perfectly to common sterilization procedures without alteration of its mechanical properties.
