Value Brand 3LW97 1 in Female Coupler x Hose Shank 316 SS Coupling

Industrial Cam and Groove Coupling

This Type C cam and groove coupling provides a 1 in female socket that accepts a matching male adapter. The body is machined from 316 stainless steel for corrosion resistance in chemical, marine and food-grade piping. A nitrile gasket seals the joint and a locking arm secures the connection. It is suited for maintenance crews and plant operators who need quick, tool-free hose changes.

316 Stainless Body with Locking Arm

The 316 stainless construction withstands aggressive fluids and elevated temperatures up to 70 F while maintaining a 250 psi working pressure. The integral hose shank accepts 1 in inside-diameter hose and is clamped externally for a secure fit. The locking arm snaps over the male adapter cam arms, preventing accidental uncoupling under vibration or pressure spikes. Overall length is 3 25/32 in, keeping the assembly compact in tight pipe runs.

Replaces Threaded or Clamped Hose Ends

This coupler replaces permanent threaded fittings or band-clamped barbs where frequent disassembly is required. The jump is worth it when hoses must be swapped daily for cleaning, product changeover or equipment rotation. It is not for systems that demand a dry-break or zero-spill disconnect, nor for pressures above the rated 250 psi at 70 F.
