Hose Fittings & Couplings
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

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.
