Overview
The Dixon DC150 quick connect cam lock coupling is a brass-bodied fitting engineered for rapid hose and pipe connections in hydraulic, pneumatic, and fluid-transfer applications. The 1-1/2″ cam lock design uses matched male and female sides that mate instantly by inserting the grooved coupling into the cam coupling and closing the cam arms, eliminating the need for wrenches or tools.
Key Features

- Quick-engage design reduces downtime during hose or equipment changes
- Brass construction for corrosion resistance in fluid-handling environments
- Built-in safety pins prevent accidental disconnection during operation
- Straight-through design ensures unrestricted flow with minimal pressure drop
