Straub Pipe Couplings
Shuk is the NZ Master Distributor for Straub®
Straub® Couplings eliminate the need for any kind of pipe end preparation and only require a torque wrench to install. They save time and money and are easy to handle as they are lightweight, 316SS construction and have a low profile. They are also reusable and eliminate the need to weld. They will replace welded, flanged, threaded, or grooved type pipe joints.

Features & Benefits
Used to join almost any material
Straub® Couplings can be used to join almost any material including PVC, steel, ductile iron and concrete.
Progressive sealing effect
Increasing internal pressure increases the contact pressure of the sealing lip.
Progressive anchoring effect
Straub® Couplings are easy on pipes. As the pressure increases, so does the gripping effect.
Space saving
Requires low storage space:
- Good accessibility
- Locking part can be rotated into the optimum fitting position – access only necessary from one side
- Close pipe arrangement possible, providing space for other components
- Small space required for later installation
