Newage Industries 5601197 Cam Groove Coupler 1/2 in Nylon

Product Description

The NEWAGE INDUSTRIES 5601197 is a Part D cam and groove female coupler with a 1/2-inch FNPT (female national pipe thread) connection, molded from nylon for lightweight, corrosion-resistant service. Cam and groove fittings allow fast, tool-free hose connections across fluid transfer systems, and this Part D style specifically provides a threaded female end that mates with a male pipe fitting on one side and accepts a cam groove adapter on the other. Rated to 175 psi maximum working pressure, it is a standard choice for low-to-medium-pressure liquid handling lines in agricultural, industrial, and general plumbing fluid-transfer applications.

This coupler suits residential and light commercial fluid transfer setups where quick-disconnect hose fittings are required. Common install scenarios include portable pump hookups, irrigation manifolds, chemical transfer lines, and tank unloading systems. The 1/2-inch thread size fits standard half-inch female NPT port openings. Plumbers, irrigation technicians, and general maintenance professionals routinely install Part D cam groove couplers in these configurations.
