Built from ductile iron and finished with a painted exterior for corrosion resistance, this fitting measures 2.5 inches by 0.75 inches and features a female pipe thread (FPT) outlet. It is used to introduce a branch tap off an existing grooved main line, making it a common component in fire protection, HVAC hydronic, and industrial piping distribution systems. Installation is typically performed by licensed pipefitters or mechanical contractors working with grooved-pipe infrastructure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis saddle tee is suited for applications where a branch connection must be added to a 2.5-inch grooved pipe run, with the 0.75-inch FPT outlet accepting a threaded pipe or fitting. It is commonly found in commercial and industrial mechanical systems including chilled water, heating hot water, and fire suppression distribution piping. The painted finish is appropriate for interior dry or semi-exposed installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDuctile iron construction for high strength in pressurized piping systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePainted exterior finish provides baseline corrosion protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFPT outlet allows direct threaded branch connections without additional adapters\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGrooved main-line interface is compatible with standard Gruvlok grooved coupling systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact saddle-tee geometry suits tight mechanical room layouts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style grooved piping component for use with 2.5-inch grooved pipe systems using Gruvlok-standard groove dimensions and a 0.75-inch FPT branch outlet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified pipefitter or mechanical contractor familiar with grooved piping systems. Depressurize and drain the pipe section fully before installing or removing any grooved fitting. Follow the applicable mechanical and plumbing codes, including IPC provisions, for branch connections in pressurized systems. Do not exceed the pressure rating of the weakest component in the assembled joint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ductile Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 inches x 0.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: FPT (Female Pipe Thread)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Painted\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASC Engineered Solutions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 390171072\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51233670660402,"sku":"0390171072","price":61.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/307631207.jpg?v=1780106362","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-390171072-gruvlok-saddle-tee-2-5x0-75-in-fpt-ductile-iron","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
