About Us

Founded in the early 1900s by Louis Campbell Sr., Campbell Fittings started as The Campbell Nipple Works, specializing in pipe nipple manufacturing for the Mid-Atlantic’s industrial markets. Our evolution from a small regional manufacturer into a national leader in hose fittings, couplings, and hose system solutions is a testament to our commitment to innovation, quality, and safety.

Following World War II, the company was acquired by Frederick Paff, who, alongside his son Thomas Paff, expanded our product line to serve the Water Well Industry and other industrial applications. By the 1960s and 1970s, we entered the industrial hose fittings market with our combination nipples, catering to distributors and manufacturers in industries like construction, oil & gas, chemical processing, and transportation.

The 1980s brought industry-wide changes, prompting us to develop proprietary hose fittings, crimping systems, and coupling technologies to meet evolving market demands. Our commitment to hose safety, leak-free performance, and engineered solutions positioned us as a trusted partner for industrial hose distributors nationwide.

During the 1990s, Thomas J. Paff played a pivotal role in improving industry standards for hose system safety and reliability. His leadership reinforced our dedication to engineering precision and superior manufacturing processes for hose fittings, ferrules, and sleeves used in air, water, steam, petroleum, and chemical applications.

In 2017, Campbell Fittings joined The Ideal Tridon Group, enhancing our capabilities with global resources, advanced manufacturing, and expanded distribution networks. This transition strengthened our ability to provide best-in-class crimped hose systems, coupling innovations, and engineered hose assembly solutions to industrial and commercial markets.

Today, Campbell Fittings is a recognized leader in industrial hose fittings, crimped hose assemblies, cam & groove couplings, and ferrule systems. We continue to collaborate with industry professionals, hose distributors, and OEMs to develop cutting-edge solutions that ensure leak-free connections, maximum safety, and long-term durability.
