Plastic Cam-and-Groove Hose Couplings for Chemicals and Petroleum
![](/prerenderstable/mvPRE/contents/gfx/imagecache/540/5403k232-5403k631c1-c01h-digital-master1572990267-p9@halfx_637085702234725473.png?ver=imagenotfound)
Made of plastic, these couplings are lighter in weight than metal cam-and-groove hose couplings, yet have the chemical resistance to withstand gasoline and other harsh substances. A complete coupling consists of a plug and a socket (both sold separately) that allow you to quickly connect and disconnect medium-to large-diameter hose lines. To connect, insert the plug into the socket and press the levers down. The levers fit snugly into the groove on the plug’s body and force the plug against the gasket to form a tight seal. To disconnect, lift both levers and pull out the plug.
Plugs with barbed end are also known as E adapters. Insert the barbed end into rubber hose and secure with a clamp.
Sockets with locking levers prevent accidental disconnection. The locking pins engage automatically when the coupling is connected. Press the locking pins simultaneously to disengage.
Sockets with barbed end are also known as C couplers. Insert the barbed end into rubber hose and secure with a clamp.
PVDF plugs and sockets have better corrosion and chemical resistance than nylon plugs and sockets. Use them when your application involves harsh acids and solvents.
Note: To ensure a correct fit, make sure that the plug and socket have the same coupling size.
Warning: Relieve all pressure before disconnecting the couplings. Do not use cam-and-groove couplings with compressed air or gas.

Made of plastic, these fittings are lighter in weight than metal barbed fittings, yet have the chemical and corrosion resistance to stand up to harsh substances. Slide the barbed end into plastic or rubber hose and secure with a clamp. Also known as hose nipples, they adapt a barbed end to a threaded end.
PVDF fittings have better chemical and corrosion resistance than nylon fittings. Use them when your application involves harsh acids.

Adjust the flow while dispensing liquid chemicals. Nozzles are polypropylene, which is lightweight with excellent chemical resistance. They shut off manually.
Style B has a trigger to turn flow on and off. It has an angled design, which reduces hose kinking for efficient fueling. Nozzle has a barbed connection; twist hose onto the barbed end and secure with a clamp. Use to transfer citric acid, nitric acid, phosphoric acid, and sodium hydroxide from pumps and processing equipment.
Warning: Do not leave nozzles unattended when in use.

Plastic Push-to-Connect Tube Fittings for Chemicals
![](/prerenderstable/mvPRE/contents/gfx/imagecache/190/1901k19--912106ac1661594645916-p9@halfx_637302247226771600.png?ver=imagenotfound)
- For Use With: Inch: Alcohol, Hydrochloric Acid, Nitric Acid, Sodium Carbonate, Sulfuric Acid
Metric: Acetic Acid, Alcohol, Arsenic Acid, Benzoic Acid, Fluoboric Acid, Sodium Carbonate, Sulfuric Acid - Temperature Range: Inch: 0° to 270° F
Metric: 32° to 175° F - Tubing: Use with hard (Durometer 55D-60D) FEP plastic
Also known as instant fittings, these chemical-resistant plastic fittings connect to tubing with a push. An internal gripping ring holds the tubing tight. To disconnect, push on the release ring and pull the tubing out of the fitting. Use these fittings in low-pressure applications.
PVDF fittings offer excellent chemical resistance, and can be used with hydrochloric acid and nitric acid. They withstand temperatures up to 270° F, higher than other push-to-connect fittings for chemicals. They are produced in a clean room and are bagged individually to prevent dirt and moisture from contaminating the inside. PVDF is also known as Kynar.
