Buying Guide

Match camlock type to connection

Choose the correct cam-and-groove type (B, C, D, E, etc.) to match your mating part—Type B mates with Type A, Type C with Type D, and so on—to ensure a proper seal

Confirm material and corrosion resistance

Aluminum fittings are lightweight and corrosion-resistant for many applications; consider stainless steel for highly corrosive fluids or potable-water use

Check thread and hose size compatibility

Verify NPT male/female thread sizes or hose ID/barb dimensions to avoid leaks and ensure the fitting fits existing hoses or adapters

Look at user ratings and pack size

Ratings near 4.7–4.9 stars indicate widespread user satisfaction; buying 2-piece packs is common for paired connections and can simplify matching

Consider application pressure and temperature

Confirm the fitting’s pressure and temperature capabilities (from manufacturer specs) to match pump and fluid conditions and prevent premature failure
