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
Answer by: Customer Support on Jan 22, 2026, 4:08 PM
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.
