Simmons946 1-1/4" Drive Coupling

Use wrench to tighten

Hard as nails! Used 3 of these on a 23 foot sand point well. No problems whatsoever! I'd get an extra one though, so you can have a small piece of pipe to put the driving cap on. The driving caps can still mess up the pipe threads if you're not careful.

I have used the Simmons 946 Well Drive Coupling for the first time in my most recent well. They are excellent. There is no deforming or thread damage to the pipes when using these couplers. I also used a good pipe joint compound. I have driven 5 wells and always experienced the fore mentioned problems when using the standard coupling. I even had to re-thread some pipes. With the Simmons coupling,I drove down 25 feet with no problems and now have a good well. They are definately worth the extra money.

Good quality. Seemed slightly loose but that could have been the threading job on the pipe from home depot. The pipe had to have the threads extended so the collar would allow the sand point and pipe to butt against each other.

Expensive but you get what you pay for

These are really beefy couplings but since they do not have the normal pipe taper be sure to use copious amounts of sealer to prevent vacuum leaks in your new well. I am speaking from experience.

If you are going to drive a well this is the correct coupling to use. It is strong and streamlined. This will not fail like the cheap coupler sold at the home improvement stores.

Drove a well in the yard about 30 feet deep using these and 6 foot pieces of pipe. Used the tractor bucket full of dirt as the mass to drive the well point and pipe into the ground. They took a large amount of abuse and performed flawlessly.

fast service, couples well to other parts

It is what it is lol!!!! Fast shipping, nice shinny metal, awesome threads dude!!!,

3 out of 4 were rusty threads were all rusty not sure why has some weight to them
