CamcoPart 39173Fits All 3" Sewer HosesCamco 39173 Easy Slip RV Straight Hose Adapter

Connect and disconnect your RV sewer hose in seconds -- no struggling with stubborn fittings, no foul odors escaping at the joint. The Camco Easy Slip Straight Adapter uses patented spin-lock rings to create a secure, airtight seal on both ends, and its tapered design accepts virtually every standard 3-inch sewer hose and slip-over fitting on the market today.

Fast, Leak-Free Sewer Hose Connections at Your RV Dump Outlet

Every time you break camp or pull into a dump station, the last thing you want is a loose, leaking sewer connection. The Camco 39173 Easy Slip Straight Adapter solves that with a straight-through design that keeps flow unrestricted while the patented spin-lock rings clamp each hose end down firmly -- no tools required.

The tapered ends are machined to accept all standard 3-inch sewer hoses and slip-over fittings, including Camco's own RhinoFLEX and Camco Sewer Hose Kit series. Once both ends are seated and the spin-lock rings are tightened, the connection is airtight, meaning no sewer gas escaping around the joint and no liquid drips. The adapter is compact enough to store right inside a standard 4-inch hollow RV bumper alongside your hose.

Patented Spin-Lock Rings

Proprietary locking rings spin down onto the hose end for a firm, airtight grip without twisting the hose itself. No clamps, no tools.

Universal 3-Inch Fit

Tapered ends accept all standard 3-inch RV sewer hoses and slip-over fittings, making this adapter broadly compatible across brands.

Full-Flow, Non-Restrictive

Straight-through interior bore allows free, unrestricted waste flow with no bottleneck or partial blockage at the connection point.

Bumper-Ready Storage

Sized to store inside a standard 4-inch hollow RV bumper along with your sewer hose -- no extra storage bag or compartment needed.

Airtight Odor Seal

The spin-lock rings pull each hose end snug against the adapter body, collapsing any gap that would otherwise allow sewer gas to escape. This matters most during sustained hookup camping where the connection sits under light pressure from waste tank gases.

What Is a Straight Sewer Hose Adapter Used For?

A straight adapter is used to join two sections of 3-inch sewer hose end-to-end, extending your reach to the dump station inlet or bridging a worn or cracked hose section mid-run. It is also used when you need a simple, airtight slip joint rather than a threaded bayonet-style fitting. If your RV outlet already has a direct drop to the ground-level dump connection, the straight adapter keeps everything in line without a directional elbow.

Straight vs. Elbow Adapter

This is the straight (in-line) version of the Easy Slip family. If your dump connection requires a 90-degree turn close to the RV outlet or dump station opening, look at the Camco Easy Slip Elbow Adapter instead. Using a straight adapter where a bend is needed will stress the hose and may cause a poor seal.

Care and Storage Tips
  • Rinse the adapter with fresh water after each use before storing.
  • Inspect the spin-lock ring threads periodically for cracking or stripping -- UV exposure and repeated thermal cycling can fatigue plastic over time.
  • Store inside the bumper or in a sealed bag to keep the fitting clean and ready for next use.
  • Do not use petroleum-based lubricants on the spin-lock threads; a small amount of water or silicone-based lube is sufficient if rings feel stiff.

Important Information
  • This adapter is designed for gravity-drain waste/sewer hose use only -- it is not rated for pressurized water supply lines.
  • Fits 3-inch sewer hoses exclusively. It will not seal correctly on 1.5-inch or 2-inch drain hoses used on some older coaches.
  • Inspect spin-lock rings before each use. Do not use if threads are cracked, stripped, or if the ring no longer tightens firmly -- a failed ring will result in a loose, leaking connection.
  • This is a straight in-line adapter. It does not provide any directional change. Do not force a bend in the hose run at this fitting.
  • Covered by a limited 90-day manufacturer warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.
