Industrial Fluid Coupling

The USA INDUSTRIALS BULK-CGF-282 is a Type B cam and groove coupling designed for industrial fluid transfer applications. It features a 304 stainless steel body with a nitrile gasket for chemical compatibility. The socket configuration accepts a 2-1/2 inch male NPT thread connection. This component suits maintenance engineers and plant operators managing pipeline infrastructure.

Pressure Rating and Thermal Limits

The coupling carries a maximum working pressure of 225 psi measured at 70 degrees Fahrenheit. The 304 stainless steel construction resists corrosion under typical process temperatures. The nitrile gasket maintains sealing integrity within standard operating ranges. No locking arm is included, so joint security relies on the cam lever engagement alone.

Installation and System Fit

The overall length measures 84.5 mm with a socket inside diameter of 3 inches, determining the flow path clearance. The 2-1/2 inch hose fitting size matches the NPT thread specification for direct pipe mounting. Transparent colour coding allows visual confirmation of media flow. The assembly frees up tooling time by enabling quick connect and disconnect cycles without threaded tightening.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 2-1/2 in NPT threads on this cam and groove coupling without damaging the 304 stainless steel body?

Apply PTFE tape or pipe thread sealant to the male NPT threads, then hand-tighten into the female port before final tightening with a wrench on the hex flats; avoid over-torquing to prevent galling the 304 stainless steel threads.

When should I replace the nitrile gasket inside this Type B socket?

Replace the nitrile gasket whenever you see cracking, hardening, or permanent compression set, or after any leak appears at the cam-lock joint; inspection during routine hose changes is recommended.

What pressure limit applies first when this coupling runs continuously at 70 F with the nitrile gasket?

The maximum working pressure is 225 psi at 70 F; sustained operation at or near this rating will reach the gasket and body pressure limit before any temperature derating occurs.
