An API adapter is fitted to each compartment outlet of a petroleum road tanker. It carries the 4" API RP 1004 interface, a machined profile that the loading arm coupler grips and seals against. Most designs include an internal poppet that stays closed until the coupler is attached and its handle is operated, keeping product inside the compartment and limiting spills when the arm is disconnected.
Hamza Fasteners supplies API adapters in aluminium for fleet operators, tanker body builders and fuel depots. We also stock the camlock adapters, dust caps and gaskets often fitted alongside them on discharge outlets, plus replacement seals. Give us the outlet flange or thread on your tank valve so we can match the mounting side. Quotes are prepared from our Dubai office.
