Hoping for some help here - My Std Cirrus has cam style hotellier fittings and I havent been able to find a wedekind sleeve that works with these rather than the vertical plunger style..
Any clues for finding sleeves for these?
Thanks in advance

As far as I know Wedekind sleeves only work on the straight up and down plunger type L'Hotellier couplings, not on the rotating cam style ones.

I just bought #538 and the sleeves are installed, interestingly, the old cam hotelier ends were in the gear/tool box, having been replaced with "plunger style" to allow installation of the wedekind sleeves.

Actually, Peter, now that the daughter is a whiz at designing and 3D printing plastic thingies, I've been thinking about what sort of snap-on plastic device would allow us to avoid having to replace the fiendish cam-style fittings ;^)
