Construction

• Nitrile Rubber gasket

• Durable stainless steel cam arm pins
• Supplied with safety clips

Features

• Precision machined to rigid tolerances
• Stainless pins will not rust or bind, providing great strength and safety
• Recess holds gasket firmly in place - ensures proper placement
• Long shank design allows proper banding, thus eliminating the major cause of hose damage

How It Works

• To make a connection, simply slide the adapter into the coupler and with normal hand pressure, press the cam levers down.
• Uncoupling is as quick and simple as coupling. Just lift the cam arms and remove the adapter.

Safety Notes

• Under no circumstances should cam and groove couplings be used for compressed air or steam service!
• Pressure rating recommendations are based on the use of mating Dixon fittings at ambient temperature 70°F with a standard seal installed. For use at elevated temperature or other unusual operating conditions, consult Dixon.
• Dixon and Boss-Lock cam and groove couplings do not interchange in the 8" size.

Specifications

No standard exists for the 8" fittings, and generally does not interchange with other manufacturers.
