During the process of installation, no tools are required and hand pressure is enough. Hence, camlock fittings not only save your time but also the tools and human power.

However, cam locks are not suitable for any kind of hose. It is forbidden to be used in compressed air or gas or high pressure applications.
Camlock fittings are manufactured by multiple materials such as aluminum, stainless steel, brass, polypropylene & fiberglass reinforced nylon to satisfy diverse requirements on the markets.
