Female S60x6 2'' - male camlock 1'' fitting

Female S60x6 2'' - male camlock 1'' fitting (Reference: 100160) from CPP represents the ideal solution for connecting your IBC tanks to transfer systems equipped with 1-inch camlock fittings. Made from polypropylene loaded with 30% fiberglass, this conversion fitting combines exceptional durability and ease of use to meet the requirements of the most demanding industrial and professional applications.

Applications and benefits

This conversion fitting finds its place in numerous professional applications: chemical transfer, food liquids, cleaning solutions, or industrial irrigation systems. Farmers use it to connect their treatment tanks to spray equipment, while manufacturers integrate it into their fluid distribution circuits.

The major advantage lies in its ability to adapt two different standards: the S60x6 thread of IBC tanks and 1-inch camlock fittings widely used in industry. This versatility avoids costly installation modifications and allows immediate integration into your existing equipment.

Technical specifications and materials

The fiberglass-loaded polypropylene at 30% gives this fitting remarkable mechanical properties. This composition ensures high rigidity and excellent durability, allowing it to resist pressure stresses and repeated stresses from connection/disconnection operations.

The material exhibits exceptional chemical resistance to most acids, bases and solvents commonly used in industry. Treated for food contact, it meets strict sanitary standards required for transferring liquids intended for human or animal consumption.

Precise dimensions guarantee perfect compatibility: the 2-inch female S60x6 inlet screws directly onto standard IBC tank caps, while the 1-inch male camlock outlet adapts to corresponding female camlock fittings.

Installation and practical use

Installation requires no specific tools. Simply unscrew the original cap from your IBC tank and screw the fitting on by hand, ensuring firm tightening without excess to preserve the thread. Sealing is ensured by the very design of the S60x6 thread.

Camlock connection is made by inserting the male fitting into the corresponding female part, then folding down the locking levers. The cam system ensures secure locking and quick disconnection even under residual pressure.

For maintenance, a simple rinse with clean water is sufficient between uses. In case of contact with aggressive chemicals, more thorough cleaning with suitable detergents may be necessary. Since polypropylene supports steam sterilization, this fitting is perfectly suitable for applications requiring strict hygiene conditions.

Expert tips and product synergies

To optimize your installation, consider complementing this fitting with a 1-inch camlock hose of appropriate length for your use. Food-grade PVC hoses or nitrile rubber flexible hoses offer excellent performance depending on the type of fluid to be transferred.

When choosing your complementary camlock fittings, ensure material compatibility. Polypropylene pairs perfectly with stainless steel, aluminum and other thermoplastics, but may present incompatibilities with certain elastomers in the presence of specific solvents.

A professional tip: always keep protective camlock caps to preserve the cleanliness of unused fittings. This prevents contamination and extends the life of your equipment.

In winter, systematically drain the fittings to avoid frost risks that could damage the polypropylene, even reinforced. This simple precaution guarantees years of reliable use.
