Midland Industries CGD-800-A1 Type D Cam Groove Coupler

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES CGD-800-A1 is an aluminum Type D cam and groove coupler designed for quick-connect fluid transfer applications in industrial, agricultural, and municipal service environments. This fitting features an 8-inch female coupler on one end and an 8-inch female NPT connection on the other, with a two-handle cam lock mechanism that allows fast, tool-free coupling and decoupling. The aluminum body is rated to a maximum operating pressure of 50 psi. The included NBR gasket handles temperatures from -40 to 212 degrees F, while the aluminum casting is rated from -150 to 250 degrees F. Typical installers include fluid handling technicians, irrigation specialists, and industrial maintenance crews.

This Type D cam and groove coupler is suited for fluid transfer lines in a range of settings including chemical processing, water transfer, fuel handling, and agricultural irrigation. The 8-8 thread configuration and female-to-female NPT design make it a straightforward drop-in connection point for hose assemblies and pipe manifolds where quick disconnect capability is required. The aluminum construction keeps weight manageable on large-diameter fittings while resisting corrosion in moderate-duty service environments.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by fluid handling or industrial maintenance technicians. Verify that the mating coupler is a Type D adapter and that thread engagement on the female NPT end meets standard hand-tight-plus wrench-turn practice per applicable piping standards. Depressurize and drain the line fully before connecting or disconnecting any cam and groove fitting. Do not exceed the rated 50 psi operating pressure or the stated gasket temperature range for the fluid being transferred.
