Asc 390171544 Gruvlok Saddle Tee Fpt 6x2.5 in Ductile Iron

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 390171544 is a Gruvlok 7045 painted saddle tee fitting with a female pipe thread (FPT) outlet, designed for grooved piping systems in commercial and industrial applications. The fitting is constructed from ductile iron and measures 6 inches by 2.5 inches, weighing 7.39 pounds. It provides a branch connection off a grooved main pipe run without cutting the main line, making it a practical solution for adding lateral takeoffs in pressurized piping systems. Licensed pipefitters and mechanical contractors are the primary installers of this type of fitting.

This saddle tee is used in commercial plumbing, fire protection, HVAC hydronic piping, and industrial process piping where grooved mechanical joining systems are specified. The 6-inch main size with a 2.5-inch FPT branch outlet accommodates common branch line configurations. The painted finish provides baseline corrosion protection for indoor and covered installations.

Key Features

• Ductile iron construction for durability in pressurized piping systems
• 6 inch main x 2.5 inch FPT branch outlet configuration
• Grooved main connection compatible with standard grooved coupling systems
• Painted exterior finish for corrosion resistance in typical indoor environments
• Saddle tee design allows branch connection without cutting the main pipe run

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style grooved saddle tee fitting for use with standard grooved mechanical piping systems in 6-inch main line applications with a 2.5-inch female pipe thread branch outlet.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed pipefitter or mechanical contractor familiar with grooved piping systems and applicable codes. Depressurize and drain the piping system before installing or servicing any grooved fittings. Verify that the grooved pipe end meets the dimensional requirements for the coupling used with this fitting. Follow all applicable local plumbing and mechanical codes during installation.
