Dixon STC300AL 3" (80 mm) Scroll Tail Camlock Type C Aluminium Coupler x Hose Tail

This Dixon scroll tail camlock is a Type C coupler in aluminium, with a spiral (scroll) hose tail made to suit composite hose (manufacturer-stated). The store lists the 3" (80 mm) and 4" (100 mm) sizes under a conductive aluminium title.

Dixon describes its scroll tail camlock fittings and ferrules as made for composite hose, with the spiral tail matched to the pitch of the wire on the hose, for applications that include water, oil and fuel, powders and adhesives (manufacturer-stated). Nitrile Buna-N rubber seals are standard (manufacturer-stated).

Dixon's scroll tail table lists STC300AL and STC400AL as aluminium Type C couplers x hose tail and gives no conductivity or electrical resistance figure for them, so the store's conductive description is not repeated as a specification here. Ask us for confirmation if conductivity matters for your job.

Dixon states that camlock couplings are designed for use with liquids and must not be used in compressed air or steam applications (manufacturer-stated). Dixon also states that polypropylene and nyglass fittings should not be mixed with aluminium fittings (manufacturer-stated).

Common specifications

Key specifications

Sizes are the mm and inch pairs in Dixon's scroll tail table (40 mm is 1-1/2", 50 mm is 2", 65 mm is 2-1/2", 80 mm is 3" and 100 mm is 4"). Dixon's table lists the size only and does not print a pressure rating for these fittings.

Selecting the right option

Type C is a coupler with a hose tail. Match the size to your composite hose and the spiral pitch of its wire, and use the ferrule that goes with this fitting; Dixon refers to its camlock accessories section for spare parts (manufacturer-stated). The working pressure of a finished assembly depends on the hose, the ferrule and the coupling. It connects to a Type A, E or F adaptor of the same size. Do not mix aluminium fittings with polypropylene or nyglass (manufacturer-stated). Do not use the fitting for compressed air or steam (manufacturer-stated).
