Compressed Air Systems

Transair
Transair's patented, push-connect and quick-connect, reusable fittings, combined with extruded aluminum tubing, provide unmatched versatility and ease of installation and modification. Total cost of installation is usually less than conventional steel piping thanks to significant labor savings. Plus, air delivery is cleaner and more efficient, corrosion is eliminated, and leakage is non-existent (allowing some of our customers to downsize or shut down compressors).  Available pipe sizes now range from ½" to 6" diameter.

Baker Group is the Midwest distributor and the second largest Transair Compressed Air Piping distributor in the United States, stocking one of the largest inventories outside of Transair itself. Our central location and large Transair inventory allow quick product shipment anywhere in the nation.

AIRpipe
AIRpipe’s unique system is designed to ensure users’ air quality, improve environment, reduce energy costs, and prolong the lifespan of equipment and tooling.  The unique grab ring design and lugged ring allows for zero risk of disconnection and leaks, while the metal clamshell connectors for all diameters are stronger and more rigid versus polymer fittings.  The high grade aluminum pipe resists corrosion, vibration, thermal variation in outdoor weather conditions and can be supplied in single 20 ft. lengths available from ¾” to 8” diameter.

As AIRPipe’s leading distributor, Baker Group is pleased to provide their patented active concentric seals that provide leak free performance, even in high vibration applications.

AQUApipe
Engineered for superior performance, AQUApipe is the complete stainless steel piping system for process fluids and gases. Continuing with their concentric seals, the clamshell connection for quick install and re-assembly is offered in 5” through 10” diameters.  In the smaller sizes (1/2” to 4") quick-press installation is used, reducing labor and contain built-in sealing options. The AQUApipe system is viable in numerous industrial and commercial applications.
