How to Install Camlock Fittings on Suction & Delivery Hoses
Camlock fittings are widely used with suction and delivery hoses for water, chemicals, wastewater, and general fluid transfer. Installing them correctly is essential to ensure a secure, leak-free, and reliable connection. Follow this simple guide for best results.
1. Gather the Right Tools & Components
Before you begin, make sure you have:
- The correct camlock fitting (male/female, type A–F as required)
- Suction or delivery hose cut to length
- Suitable clamps
- A sharp hose cutter
- Screwdriver, spanner, or banding tool (depending on clamp type)
2. Prepare the Hose End
A proper hose end is essential for a secure seal.
- Cut the hose cleanly and square using a hose cutter
- Remove any loose debris, sharp edges, or fraying
- For reinforced suction hose, check that the internal helix isn’t deformed - trim carefully if needed
- Slide your clamp onto the hose before fitting the camlock tail
3. Fit the Camlock Tailpiece
- Push the hose fully onto the camlock hose tail until it sits firmly against the shoulder
- This may require a twisting motion for heavily reinforced hose
- Ensure the hose is seated evenly all around the tail - this is critical for sealing
4. Secure Using the Correct Clamps
Choose a clamp suitable for the hose type:
- For Standard Delivery Hose
- Use a worm-drive hose clamp
- Position it just behind the final barb ridge and tighten evenly
- For Suction & Wire-Reinforced Hose
- Use heavy-duty bolt clamps or a steel banding system for a stronger hold
- Tighten gradually and evenly to avoid pinching or distorting the hose
- Double-clamping may be needed for large-diameter suction hose
5. Connect and Lock the Camlock
- Attach the matching camlock coupler/adaptor
- Close both cam arms fully - there should be a firm, positive snap
- Check that the gasket is correctly seated and not pinched
6. Pressure-Test Your Assembly
Before putting the hose into full service:
- Run water or air through the assembly at low pressure
- Check for leaks around the clamp and camlock interface
- Tighten clamps further if small leaks appear, or refit if necessary
7. Ongoing Maintenance Tips
- Inspect clamps regularly, especially on suction lines that see vibration
- Replace worn gaskets immediately - camlock seals are inexpensive and essential
- Store hoses coiled, dry, and out of direct sunlight to extend service life
