Camlock Coupling Part A is a cam-and-groove connection component available from Advtech Engineering for compatible industrial hose, pipe and equipment interfaces. Before ordering, confirm how Part A is shown in the connection drawing, together with the mating half, thread, size, body material, seal, media and operating conditions.

Published Camlock Part A Specifications

Listed body materials	Stainless Steel 316, brass, aluminium and polypropylene
Published size range	1/2″ to 6″
Published maximum operating pressure	150 PSI

The 150 PSI value is a published maximum and should not be applied automatically to every material, size, thread, seal or completed assembly. Verify the exact model data.

Identify Part A on the Connection Drawing

Do not order by the letter designation alone. Provide a sketch, equipment drawing, sample or clear mating-half details showing the cam-and-groove profile, thread requirement, size and flow direction. Similar-looking parts may not be interchangeable.

Confirm the Thread Form and Standard

Specify the thread form, nominal size, pitch, standard, gender, sealing method and required engagement. A size label does not prove thread compatibility. Incorrect thread combinations may assemble partially while failing to seal or carry load correctly.

Select the Body Material

Advtech lists Stainless Steel 316, brass, aluminium and polypropylene options. Select only after reviewing the exact media, corrosion environment, temperature, cleaning method, mechanical duty, weight and documentation requirements.

Review Media, Seal and Gasket Compatibility

Provide the full liquid or gas name, composition, concentration, additives, contaminants and current Safety Data Sheet. Confirm the mating seal or gasket material, thread sealant and every wetted component. The product page does not publish one universal seal compound.

Verify Pressure and Temperature Conditions

State normal working pressure, possible surge, trapped pressure, vacuum where applicable, and fluid and ambient temperatures. Use only the rating verified for the exact material, size, thread, seal and manufacturer model. The lowest-rated component governs the assembly.

Match the Cam-and-Groove Mating Half

Confirm the mating-half type, manufacturer or series, dimensions, identification and condition before connection. If a coupled connection is required, compare the documented Camlock Coupling Part B details and verify the exact pairing rather than assuming compatibility.

Installation and Inspection

Inspect the body, groove or profile, thread, sealing face and mating component for dirt, damage, wear, corrosion or incompatible residue. Confirm full engagement without forcing the connection, support connected piping or hose, and use the site-approved leak-check method.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is every Camlock Part A rated to 150 PSI?

No universal assumption should be made. Verify the exact material, size, thread, seal and manufacturer data because the published 150 PSI figure is a maximum.

Can Part A be selected using only the nominal size?

No. Confirm the cam-and-groove profile, thread form, standard, gender, dimensions and mating-half identification.

Which material should be used for chemicals or fuels?

No material can be selected from an industry label alone. Review the exact media and SDS, concentration, temperature, corrosion environment, seal and manufacturer compatibility information.

Request a Camlock Coupling Part A Review in Malaysia

Send Advtech Engineering the connection drawing and operating details for a configuration review. Final suitability remains subject to the exact coupling, thread, seal, mating half and complete transfer system.

Safety note: Isolate and depressurise the line before connection work or maintenance. Never disconnect a pressurised system, and follow approved site procedures.
