Description
Disconnect the line without undoing the thread.
Leave a camlock connection ready at your equipment with this ¾-inch Type A adapter. The female BSP socket fits a matching male outlet; the grooved male camlock end accepts a separate female coupler.
Once installed, the adapter can stay on the equipment while you remove the line at the cam joint. It is a useful arrangement when a hose or pipe assembly needs to come off for storage or maintenance.
You receive one black polypropylene fitting. The female coupler and other installation parts are chosen separately.
Match the socket and the grooved end
The BSP thread fixes the adapter; the camlock releases the line.
Female BSP socket: the internal ¾-inch thread screws onto a matching male BSP equipment thread. Check the existing thread and use the appropriate sealing arrangement.
Male camlock: the nominal ¾-inch grooved nose fits inside a compatible female camlock coupler. Its operating arms and seal are on that separate female part, rather than on this adapter.
To connect a hose, a matching ¾-inch Type C female coupler provides a hose tail. The optional Type C shown above is sold separately and has a nominal ¾-inch/19mm tail. Match it to the hose bore, use a suitable clamp and check the actual cam mating fit.
¾-inch is a nominal connection size. It is not a direct measurement across the adapter body, and does not make the camlock compatible with a garden-hose click connector.
Fit the thread first. Connect at the cam joint.
Work with flow stopped and the system depressurised.
- Install and seal the female BSP socket on the matching male equipment outlet.
- Open both arms of the separate female coupler, then seat the male camlock fully. Close both arms evenly by hand and fit the retaining hardware as instructed for the coupler.
- Check the finished assembly before use. Isolate and depressurise before opening the cam joint again.
This adapter has an open passage and no shut-off mechanism. Check that its polypropylene body and the mating seal suit the liquid, temperature and working pressure of your system.
Before you order
Will a garden-hose click connector attach to it?
No. The grooved end is a camlock connection and needs a compatible female camlock coupler. A garden-hose click connector is a different system. The other end is a female BSP thread for a matching male equipment outlet.
Is the female camlock part included?
No. One Type A adapter is supplied. The female coupler, hose, clamps and thread-sealing materials are separate purchases. The adapter itself has no operating arms or shut-off valve.

What is BSP?
What is BSP thread size?
BSP (British Standard Pipe) is a nominal pipe-thread size, not a direct measurement of a fitting’s bore or outside diameter. For example, a ½-inch BSP male thread measures about 21mm across its outer thread crests.
These figures are approximate outside diameters of male BSP threads, to help identify the nominal size. They are not inch-to-millimetre unit conversions:
- 3/8" BSP → 16.66 mm
- 1/2" BSP → 20.95 mm
- 3/4" BSP → 26.44 mm
- 1" BSP → 33.25 mm
- 1.25" BSP → 41.91 mm
- 1.5" BSP → 47.80 mm
- 2" BSP → 59.61 mm
- 3" BSP → 87.88 mm
- 4" BSP → 113.03 mm
All our BSP threads are parallel (BSPP, to ISO 228), not tapered.
Measure across the outside of a male thread, then check its pitch and whether it is parallel or tapered. Diameter alone does not confirm compatibility. Check the product’s stated thread specification before connecting.
