DIXON 6IN TYPE B FEM CPLR W/HOSE SHANK BAUER STYLE GALVANIZED

Description & Features

Designed for large-diameter fluid transfer connections, this 6-inch galvanized Type B female coupler with hose shank is built to the Bauer style standard, a widely used cam-and-groove coupling format in agricultural irrigation, industrial fluid handling, and water transfer applications. The galvanized steel construction provides corrosion resistance suited to outdoor and wet-service environments where untreated carbon steel would degrade.

The Dixon Valve & Coupling Dixon 6in Type B Fem Cplr W/Hose Shank Bauer Style Galvanized features a female coupler end paired with an integrated hose shank, allowing direct attachment to compatible large-bore hose assemblies. This configuration is commonly used where quick-connect flexibility is needed alongside a secure, leak-resistant hose termination at the female end of the Bauer-style circuit.

got a 6 inch irrigation hose, how does this thing hook up on the hose end

For the hose side, it uses an integrated hose shank, so the coupler is meant to slide into a compatible large-bore hose for a direct hose attachment. The other side is a 6 inch Type B female coupler end built to the Bauer style standard for quick-connect use in that coupling system.

Got a big irrigation setup and need a female Bauer coupler on the hose end, this the right piece for that?

Answer by: Customer Support on Sep 29, 2025, 7:23 PM

For large-bore irrigation runs where you need a female Bauer-style connection at the hose end, yeah, this fits that application well. The FC3106 pairs a Type B female coupler with an integrated hose shank, so you get a direct attachment point for compatible large-diameter hose without needing a separate fitting in between. The galvanized steel holds up in outdoor and wet conditions a lot better than plain carbon steel would, which matters when gear stays out in the elements all season.
