Midland Industries CGE-600-A1 Type E Cam Groove Adapter

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES CGE-600-A1 is a Type E cam and groove adapter machined from aluminum, connecting a 6-inch male adapter on one end to a 6-inch hose shank on the other. This fitting is designed for quick-connect hose coupling systems where fast assembly and breakdown are required without tools. The aluminum construction keeps weight low while offering solid resistance across a broad service temperature range of -150 to 250 degrees F. Plumbers, industrial pipefitters, and fluid-handling technicians install these fittings in transfer and distribution lines where cam and groove couplings are the standard connection method.

This adapter suits residential and commercial fluid transfer applications, including water, light chemicals, and agricultural or industrial bulk-liquid handling where aluminum cam and groove fittings are approved for service. The Type E configuration - male adapter to hose shank - is commonly used to transition from a cam and groove manifold or valve to a rubber or flexible hose assembly. The 6-inch size is typical in high-volume liquid transfer operations such as tank truck loading, irrigation headers, and industrial process lines.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit component for standard cam and groove coupling systems using Type E adapters in 6-inch hose shank configurations. Verify groove cam body and hose shank compatibility with existing system components before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by plumbers, pipefitters, or fluid-handling technicians familiar with cam and groove coupling systems. Depressurize and drain the line completely before removing any existing fittings. Inspect cam arms and gaskets on mating couplers for wear before connecting. Follow applicable industry standards for hose-to-fitting attachment, including proper clamp torque per hose manufacturer recommendations.
