Single Strap Pipe Saddle, 6 in, 1 in CC Tapered Thread

FORD ductile iron service saddles have a wide range and are designed for use on asbestos-cement, cast or ductile iron and can be specifically sized for PVC pipe. They offer a simple, yet satisfactory, means of tapping water main pipe. The FC style is recommended for use in corrosive areas and the stainless steel bands are especially recommended for use on PVC. FORD style FC saddles should be pre-sized when used on PVC pipe. Pre-sized saddles will conform to the PVC pipe O.D. without placing undue stress on the pipe. The FORD Meter Box Company endorses full compliance with the standard tapping practices and recommended material requirements for tapping PVC pipe outlined in the Uni-Bell Handbook of PVC Pipe and the AWWA Manual M23. Improperly sized saddles and saddles with narrow straps are not for use on PVC pipe. If properly sized to the OD of PVC pipe, FC Saddles meet the stipulations of AWWA and Uni-Bell for use on PVC pipe. One side of the saddle has closed lugs to allow pre-assembly of the saddle straps to facilitate installation. The heavy-duty outlet gasket maintains a positive seal in excess of the pipe rating.
