"Our catalog serves one million customers a year and offers over 45,000 parts. More than 300 are from Collars and Couplings. They ship immediately and help us keep our inventory to a minimum.

"Our companies have such a good relationship that when someone asks for information about a collar or a coupling, we tell them, 'Call Dan Whalen at Collars and Couplings.' We don't worry that Collars and Couplings will try to take our customers away. They never sell directly to end-users.

"Just like us, Collars and Couplings has no minimums on orders. If customers are in a pinch and need only one part, they can get it from us. We share the same philosophy: treat customers as they want to be treated, and they'll keep coming back."
