Midland Industries 449450 Type Da Cam Groove Coupler Brass

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 449450 is a Type DA cam and groove coupler designed for quick-connect fluid transfer applications in industrial and commercial settings. This brass fitting features a 2-inch female coupler on one end and a 3-inch male adapter on the other, allowing for a reducing connection between differently sized hose or pipe assemblies. The brass construction provides solid corrosion resistance in a wide range of fluid handling environments. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and industrial maintenance technicians are the typical installers of this style of fitting.

Type DA cam and groove couplers are used across industries including agriculture, petroleum transfer, chemical handling, water supply, and general fluid management. The reducing configuration - 2 inches on the female coupler side and 3 inches on the male adapter side - suits installations where line sizes change between a pump outlet, tank port, or distribution manifold. This fitting is suited for both permanent and temporary hose connections requiring fast makeup and breakout without tools.

Installation Notes

Installation of cam and groove couplings should be performed by a qualified pipefitter, plumber, or industrial technician familiar with the fluid system involved. Always depressurize and drain the line completely before disconnecting or replacing any coupling. Verify that the gasket or seal inside the female coupler is properly seated before engaging the cam arms. Follow applicable local codes and system pressure ratings when selecting fittings for your application.
