Plasson Saddle Threaded IPS-OD x ACME
Plasson Saddle – ACME Threaded Branch Fitting (IPS-OD x ACME)
The Plasson Saddle with a threaded IPS-OD x ACME outlet is a mechanical branch fitting designed to create a secure, leak-free connection on existing HDPE (polyethylene) water pipelines. It is commonly used to add new service lines or access points without cutting or replacing the main pipe.
Key Features:
Branch Connection Function: Creates a permanent or semi-permanent outlet on existing HDPE pipelines.
IPS-OD Compatibility: Designed to clamp onto standard outside-diameter polyethylene pipe sizes.
ACME Threaded Outlet: Provides a strong, standardized connection point for tapping tools, service valves, or drilling equipment.
Leak-Free Seal: Mechanical saddle design ensures a secure, watertight connection under pressure.
Tool Access Design: ACME thread supports robust attachment during tapping or service installation.
Material: Polypropylene construction for durability and corrosion resistance.
Pressure Rating: 200 PSI for pressurized water systems.
Common Applications: Used in municipal water systems, irrigation networks, and commercial water distribution lines.
Durable and reliable, this fitting is engineered for safe, efficient branch creation on live HDPE water pipelines.
