Since its development over 60 years ago, several attempts have been made to copy the Bauer coupling but none of the imitations have ever reached the quality and durability of the original.
This high quality level results from the uncompromising use of high-grade materials along with Bauer's own production and quality control on pipe mills specifically designed for this purpose.
Millions of Bauer couplings prove their value in tough industrial and agricultural applications throughout global markets.
Industrial Hose and Pipe Fittings Ltd are the biggest stockist and distributor of Genuine Bauer couplings in the UK.
With over 35 different product ranges kept in stock, we are your go to supplier for anything Bauer.
From the inventor of the Genuine HK Coupling System, often imitated, never duplicated.
