General Information
Specifications on Dixon Cam and Groove
Dixon
Boss-Lock
1. Precision machined to rigid tolerances.
2. Durable stainless steel cam arm pins will not rust or bind, for
greater strength and safety.
3. Recess holds gasket firmly in place - ensures proper
placement.
4. Long shank design allows proper banding, thus eliminating the
major cause of hose damage.
Size represents the coupler or adapter and hose or pipe end. (i.e. 200 = 2") If the coupling is a reducing size, the coupler or
adapter is the first size. (i.e. 4030-C is 4" coupler to 3" hose shank).
Operation of Cam and Groove
Pull Ring Safety Clips
1. To make connection, simply slide the adapter into the coupler
and with normal hand pressure, press the cam levers down.
2. Uncoupling is as quick and simple as coupling. Just lift the
cam arms and remove the adapter.
Boss-Lock cam and groove provides a
unique patented safety
feature
. The cast-in lugs allow safety clips to be attached once
the lugs are passed through slots in the special cam lever
arms. These clips prevent the coupler from being unlocked
until they are removed, providing a
positive locking action
.
Dixon has developed the pull ring safety clip to simplify the
locking action on Boss-Lock couplers. No more inserting clips
or dangling lanyards, just a twist and it's locked, giving you a
low profile
positive locking action
.
