Midland Industries CGE-125-A1 Cam Groove Adapter 1-1/4 in

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES CGE-125-A1 is a Type E cam and groove adapter designed for quick-connect fluid transfer applications. It features a 1-1/4 inch male adapter on one end and a 1-1/4 inch hose shank on the other, allowing fast, secure coupling to cam and groove receivers while transitioning to barbed hose assemblies. Cast aluminum construction keeps weight low and provides adequate corrosion resistance for a wide range of non-aggressive fluid handling services. The fitting is rated for a casting temperature range of -150 to 250 degrees F, making it suitable for both cold-fluid and moderate-heat transfer lines. Plumbers, pipefitters, and fluid transfer technicians are the primary installers.

This adapter is used in industrial, agricultural, and commercial fluid handling systems where cam and groove quick-connect couplings are standard. The Type E configuration - male adapter to hose shank - is a common configuration for connecting cam and groove manifolds or tank fittings directly to rubber or PVC transfer hose assemblies. Typical applications include water transfer, fuel handling, chemical transfer with compatible fluids, and general-purpose liquid conveyance. It is suited for both permanent installations and portable pump setups where fast line changes are required.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by pipefitters, plumbers, or fluid transfer technicians familiar with cam and groove coupling systems. Always depressurize and drain the line before connecting or disconnecting cam and groove fittings. Inspect the hose shank barbs and clamp the mating hose with appropriately rated hose clamps or crimp ferrules to prevent pull-off under pressure. Verify that the fluid media and operating pressure are within the limits of both this fitting and all other system components before returning the line to service.
