PT Quick Connect/Disconnect Couplings provide for quick connecting and disconnecting by means
of the camming action. This camming action allows pipe and hose connections to be made without the
need of hand tools or difficult threaded connections. Cam and groove couplings are made up of two
parts, male (adapter/plug) and female (coupler/socket) that work together. The male adapter is simply
inserted into the female coupler until contact is made with the gasket. Both cam arms on the coupler
are then pressed down/closed simultaneously to produce a uniform gasket compression between the seal
surfaces. This seal is created because the cam arms of the female coupler fit snugly against the groove
of the male adapter. A positive seal requires that the surfaces on the gasket seat, the adapter face,
and the gasket are smooth and uncontaminated. Also cam arms must be in the full closed position for proper
locking of the coupling. To disconnect both arms must be lifted / opened simultaneously to release the seal
and release the connection.
