KAMLOK hose couplings and accessories
KAMLOK couplings - quick and safe hose connections
KAMLOK hose couplings are tried and tested quick couplings that have been specially developed for connecting hoses and pipes. They are ideal for transporting liquids, granulates and gaseous substances. KAMLOK couplings guarantee a tight and secure connection and are versatile in use.
Features of the KAMLOK hose couplings
An outstanding feature of KAMLOK hose couplings is that the internal threads are fitted with a flow seal. In addition, locking collars are used to ensure a stable connection. KAMLOK couplings are easy to handle as they can be opened and closed by hand. The smooth, stepless medium passage guarantees problem-free and efficient use.
Construction of the KAMLOK hose couplings
KAMLOK hose couplings consist of a female part (coupling) and a male part (plug), which are locked by lever arms. The high-quality stainless steel versions are equipped with safety cotter pins to prevent unintentional disconnection. This robust design ensures maximum safety during use.
Lever mechanism for easy use
KAMLOK hose couplings are connected using a precise lever mechanism. This mechanism, combined with the safety clips, ensures a firm and tight connection. Thanks to the use of commercially available types, the couplings can be easily replaced after installation.
Materials of the KAMLOK couplings
KAMLOK couplings are manufactured from various materials, including:
- Stainless steel: High pressure resistance, robustness and durability.
- Aluminum: Non-magnetic, lightweight and thermally conductive.
- Brass: High electrical conductivity and ideal for the food industry.
- Polypropylene: Chemical-resistant, electrically insulating and cost-effective, with up to 30 percent glass fiber content.
Operating pressure of the KAMLOK hose couplings
The operating pressure of KAMLOK hose couplings varies depending on the material and size. The pressure resistance is designed for a temperature of 20 degrees Celsius (room temperature); higher temperatures can impair the pressure resistance.
Standards in the USA and Europe
Originally developed in the USA, KAMLOK hose couplings were standardized by the American military under the Mil-C-27487 standard. The Federal Mil A-A-59326A standard has been in force since 1999. In Europe, the EN 14420-7 standard has been applicable since 2004.
Application areas for KAMLOK hose couplings
KAMLOK hose couplings are used in various industries, including:
- Manufacturing industry
- Energy industry
- Agriculture
- Food industry
- Pharmacy
- Chemical industry
- Military applications
Thanks to the use of high-quality V4A stainless steel, they are also suitable for aggressive media.
