This guide is for professionals and DIY users in agriculture, construction, and industrial settings needing a secure and rapid hose connection. The key benefit is its reliable, leak-free coupling via a simple cam mechanism. A caveat to consider is that all thread sizes are BSP (British Standard Pipe Thread), so ensure compatibility with your existing fittings. This 3-inch Type E fitting allows a cam lock connection on one end and a barbed tail for serrated layflat hose on the other, facilitating quick assembly and disassembly.

Type E refers to the specific configuration of the camlock fitting, which in this case is a cam coupling on one end and a serrated hose tail on the other, designed for connecting to serrated layflat hoses.
Yes, all thread sizes on this fitting are BSP (British Standard Pipe Thread). This is a common standard for pipe fittings.
The fitting is made of polypropylene, known for its chemical resistance and durability in various environmental conditions.
No, the Type E fitting has a serrated tail specifically designed to grip serrated layflat hoses. It requires a hose clamp for a secure connection.
Specific pressure ratings depend on the hose used and the connection integrity. However, polypropylene camlocks are generally suitable for moderate pressure applications typical in irrigation and general fluid transfer.
Ensure the male BSP fitting is clean and correctly threaded, and that the cam levers are fully closed. For the hose connection, a properly sized and tightened hose clamp on the serrated tail is crucial.
Ensure the male BSP fitting is clean and undamaged. Verify that the cam levers are fully engaged and locked. Check the gasket (if applicable) for wear or damage.
Ensure a proper hose clamp is used and tightened securely around the hose and tail. Verify the hose is fully seated on the serrated portion. Use a clamp rated for the pressure being used.
Clean the cam mechanism and pivot points. Lubricate lightly with a silicone-based lubricant if necessary. Ensure no debris is caught in the mechanism.
