Kamlok couplings for fast and safe hose connections
Kamlok couplings are robust quick couplings that connect hoses and pipes quickly, safely, and without tools. The lever system ensures that the arms close securely around the adapter, creating an immediate leak-free and reliable connection. This makes Kamlok couplings ideal for time-critical tasks in chemistry, agriculture, food industry, water technology, and for tank trucks.
Features, performance, and application areas
The system consists of standardized types A to F, suitable for threaded, hose, and flange connections. A sealing ring between the coupling and adapter guarantees a secure closure, even under varying pressure or intensive use. Thanks to the universal standard according to MIL C 27487, most Kamlok couplings are interchangeable between manufacturers. They can be used for a variety of media such as water, chemicals, fuels, and process liquids and function reliably at working pressures of up to approximately sixteen bar. As a result, they are widely used in pumps, temporary piping works, tank installations, and emergencies where speed and safety are crucial.
Variants, material options, and technical support
Kamlok couplings are available in stainless steel, aluminum, brass, and polypropylene. Stainless steel offers excellent chemical and mechanical resistance for aggressive or hygienic environments. Aluminum is lightweight and practical for water, fuels, and general use. Brass provides good durability for neutral media, while polypropylene is ideal for corrosive environments and lower temperatures. Rubaflex offers a complete range of Kamloks and advises on the right type, material, and sealing to ensure that every connection performs safely, efficiently, and sustainably.
