Engineered to Protect. Designed to Flow.
The Breakaway Camlock is built to separate safely under excessive force while maintaining full, unrestricted flow during normal operation. It protects your equipment without sacrificing performance.
Normal Operation
When installed, the Breakaway Camlock functions like a standard camlock fitting.
Full flow. No restriction. No operational change.
During a Drive-Away Event
If tension exceeds designed limits:
Shear tabs separate
Internal sleeve disengages
Dual shutoff mechanism activates
Flow is automatically stopped on both sides
The housing remains intact.
Replace tabs. Return to service.
The internal bore is designed to maintain a consistent internal diameter, preserving smooth flow characteristics. By accounting for Daniel Bernoulli’s flow principle, the system avoids unnecessary constrictions that would otherwise increase velocity and reduce pressure.
What this means for you:
No loss in flow rate
No added back pressure
No pump strain
No performance compromise
No added restriction. No unnecessary back pressure. Just reliable flow.
An integrated internal protective sleeve isolates the mechanical components and sealing surfaces from water, slurry, mud, and debris.
This sleeve:
Shields springs and shear components
Prevents corrosion and sediment intrusion
Keeps moving parts clean and functional
Extends service life dramatically
The result?
It works on day one — and it works the same way years from now.
