How CAMLOCK couplings work

The coupling is completed by opening, by hand, the levers on the sides of the Female Coupler and inserting the male coupler. The levers are then closed, by hand, and a liquid-tight connection is formed.

IBC and Drum Fittings

Designed to facilitate quick, secure & easy to maintain IBC & drum offloading systems these fittings also offer excellent chemical resistance with their bodies in Polyglass and all moving parts in Stainless Steel. They enable the conversion of the IBC buttress connection at the bottom of the IBC into a BSP thread, CAM Lock or Hose Tail for easier connection to hose assemblies. Connections with swivel joints and threaded vents are also available on request.

Brass, Stainless Steel AISI 316 and Polyglass Pipe Threaded Fittings

ANSI/DIN Flanges and Universal Flange Adaptors

To enable easy transition between our pump systems and the installation it is being integrated into Tapflo UK Ltd. can also supply a variety of ANSI / DIN Flanges, Gaskets and Universal Flange Adaptors. Flange adaptors are commonly used for joining pipes of different rigid materials together. Such as Cast Iron, Stainless Steel & PVC. Our flange adaptors are available according to EN1092-2 PN10/PN16, ANSI up to DN400 and BSTD up to DN400 (Except DN250.) They are Epoxy coated Cast Iron with EPDM seals as standard and available up to DN1400 (55”).

Expansion Bellows Expansion Joints and anti-vibration couplings

Expansion Bellows

Tapflo UK Ltd. has a wide array of Expansion Bellows, Expansion Joints & Anti-Vibration Couplings to facilitate the protection pipework and pump systems from the extension, compression and misalignments as well as noise & vibration reduction, which in turn allows for further reduction of the effects of water hammer.

Flanged Expansion Bellows

Threaded Expansion Bellows

Available from ¾” to 3” with EPDM, NBR or Stainless Steel Bellows and Galvanised Iron or Stainless Steel Union Connections. WRAS approved units are available on request. Max Pressure: 16 Bar, Max Vacuum: 0.5 Bar, Max Temp: 100ºC (EPDM) / 80ºC (NBR), 427ºC (SS).

Anti-Vibration Couplings

Available from DN20 to DN200 with universal PN6 / 10 Flange Connection, EPDM Body & Galvanised Carbon Steel Internal Flanges, Tie Rods & Nuts. Max Pressure: 10 Bar, Max Temp: 100ºC.

Quick Release and Dry Break Couplings

For applications where close to zero spillage is required, due to H&S regulations, environmental factors, where cleanliness is of prime importance or where the value of the pumped product is too high to account for losses or spillages, Tapflo UK Ltd. are capable of supplying Quick Release or Dry Break Couplings.

Quick Release Couplings or Quick Disconnects/Quick Connectors are a fast and tool-free alternative to threaded or flanged connections which self-seal upon disconnection and are available in with a wide variety of materials, styles & features including “single shut off” and “straight-through” variants.

The Dry Break Coupling or Dry Connect/Dry Disconnect Coupling features automatic sealing mechanisms, typically by valves, which facilitate complete isolation of the process fluid within the hose or pipework assembly. These are available in both Sanitary and Industrial designs in a wide variety of materials & styles.
