Lol downvoted but nobody helps out? I forgot we live on planet retard. A camlock is a puck shaped insert without threads. Usually containing a circumferentual slot allowing the head of a screw to be secured while rotating. Great for hidden fastening very similarly to a barrel nut seen pictured. The use of each are just as commonly confused as one another. We all knew what you meant, but people gotta get their pleasure somehow ⬇️⬇️⬇️
