Description
1" Cam & Groove Replacement Gasket PTFE (Teflon)
1" Cam & Groove Replacement Gaskets in PTFE (Teflon) are designed to replace worn or damaged sealing gaskets in compatible 1" female cam & groove couplers. The gasket seats inside the coupler and seals against the mating male camlock adapter when the connection is secured.
PTFE provides a chemically resistant sealing option for compatible industrial fluid-transfer applications. Always verify PTFE compatibility with the specific media, operating temperature, pressure, and complete cam & groove system before installation.

Construction Details
This replacement gasket is manufactured from PTFE (Teflon) and is sized for compatible 1" female cam & groove couplers.
When the mating male camlock adapter is inserted into the female coupler and the cam arms are closed, the gasket is compressed between the sealing surfaces to help establish the connection seal.
Camlock gaskets should be inspected periodically for wear, deformation, cuts, contamination, or other damage that could affect sealing performance.
How the Camlock Gasket Works
Inside the Female Coupler
The PTFE gasket seats inside the compatible 1" female cam & groove coupler where it contacts the sealing face of the mating male adapter.
Compression Seal
Closing the cam arms draws the male adapter into the coupler and compresses the gasket to help create a secure seal at the camlock connection.
PTFE (Teflon) Gasket Material
PTFE is commonly selected for sealing applications requiring broad chemical resistance and compatibility with demanding industrial media.
The proper gasket material depends on the actual service conditions. Verify PTFE compatibility with the specific chemical or fluid, concentration, temperature, pressure, exposure time, and complete fitting system before use.
Selecting the Correct Replacement Gasket
| Selection Point | What to Confirm |
|---|---|
| Camlock Size | This gasket is for compatible 1" cam & groove couplers. |
| Gasket Material | Confirm PTFE is the required material for the application. |
| Transferred Media | Verify chemical compatibility with the actual fluid being transferred. |
| Operating Conditions | Confirm pressure and temperature requirements for the complete connection. |
| Coupler Compatibility | Confirm the gasket profile and dimensions match the intended 1" female camlock coupler. |

PTFE vs. Elastomer Camlock Gaskets
PTFE
Often selected when broad chemical resistance is a primary consideration. PTFE has different sealing characteristics than flexible elastomer materials, so the gasket must match the intended camlock coupler and application.
Elastomer Gaskets
Materials such as Buna-N and FKM provide different flexibility, chemical-resistance, and temperature characteristics. Select gasket material based on the actual service requirements.
When to Replace a Camlock Gasket
Inspect cam & groove gaskets during routine hose and fitting maintenance. Replace the gasket if its condition could prevent the coupler from sealing correctly.
- Visible cuts, scoring, or physical damage
- Permanent deformation
- Excessive wear on the sealing surface
- Chemical deterioration or contamination
- Damage caused during installation or removal
- Persistent leakage at the camlock connection
Installation & Selection Considerations
- Confirm the coupler requires a 1" replacement gasket before ordering.
- Inspect and clean the gasket seat and mating sealing surfaces before installation.
- Install the PTFE gasket evenly without forcing, bending, or damaging the sealing surface.
- Never service or disconnect a camlock connection while the system is pressurized.
- Verify PTFE, chemical, temperature, pressure, and complete system compatibility before use.
Our hose, fitting, and industrial product specialists can help review your 1" camlock size, PTFE gasket requirements, chemical compatibility, operating conditions, and fluid-transfer application before you order.

What is this 1" Cam & Groove Replacement Gasket used for?
It is designed to replace the sealing gasket inside a compatible 1" female cam & groove coupler.
What material is this gasket made from?
This replacement gasket is made from PTFE, commonly referred to as Teflon.
Where does the gasket install?
The gasket seats inside the compatible 1" female cam & groove coupler where it seals against the mating male camlock adapter.
Is this gasket for sizes other than 1"?
This product is specifically identified as a 1" cam & groove replacement gasket. Confirm the size of the female coupler before ordering.
Why choose a PTFE camlock gasket?
PTFE is commonly selected when broad chemical resistance is required. Suitability still depends on the specific fluid and operating conditions.
Can PTFE be used with every chemical?
Do not assume universal compatibility. Verify PTFE against the specific chemical, concentration, temperature, pressure, and exposure conditions of the application.
When should the gasket be replaced?
Replace the gasket if it is worn, damaged, deformed, chemically degraded, contaminated, or no longer provides a reliable seal.
Can I replace the gasket while the system is pressurized?
No. Safely shut down, depressurize, and drain the system as appropriate before disconnecting the camlock fitting or replacing its gasket.
Important Ordering & Installation Notes
- Nominal gasket size is 1".
- Gasket material is PTFE (Teflon).
- Confirm compatibility with the intended 1" female cam & groove coupler.
- Never service the camlock connection while the system is pressurized.
- Verify PTFE, media, pressure, temperature, and application compatibility before use.
