Introduction of hose coupling

The hose coupling is a connector on the end of a hose to connect (or couple) it with another hose or with a tap or a hose appliance, such as an irrigation sprinkler. It is usually made of steel, brass, stainless steel, aluminium or plastic. Camlock fittings from K&G are designed for use with their entire range of rubber hoses,PVC hoses and composite hoses. They have proven themselves in a wide range of industrial and mining applications and are manufactured to cater for all bore sizes across our comprehensive range of industrial and mining hoses. This ensures that we have hose fittings for your requirements.
