Newage Industries 5600497 Cam Groove Coupling 1-1/2 in

Product Description

The NEWAGE INDUSTRIES 5600497 is a Part B cam and groove coupling designed for quick-connect fluid transfer applications. This female coupler uses a male NPT (MNPT) thread connection in a 1-1/2 inch thread size and is constructed from nylon for lightweight, corrosion-resistant performance. Rated to a maximum of 150 psi, it is suited for water, chemical transfer, and general-purpose hose and fitting systems. Licensed plumbers, industrial maintenance technicians, and irrigation professionals are the typical installers for this style of cam groove fitting.

Cam and groove couplings of this type are commonly used in agricultural irrigation, chemical transfer lines, tank truck connections, and general industrial fluid handling. The Part B designation identifies this as the female coupler half of the cam and groove system, designed to mate with a Part A male adapter. This coupling is appropriate for both residential and light commercial fluid transfer setups where a fast, tool-free hose connection is required.

Installation Notes

Installation of cam and groove couplings should be performed by a qualified plumbing or mechanical technician. Always depressurize and drain the line before connecting or disconnecting fittings. Ensure thread engagement is complete and the cam arms are fully seated before pressurizing the system. Follow applicable plumbing codes such as IPC for fluid system connections.
