Built from ductile iron and finished with a protective paint coating, this fitting measures 8 inches on the run by 3 inches on the outlet and weighs 12.20 pounds. It is installed by licensed pipefitters, mechanical contractors, and fire protection professionals working with grooved-joint pipe systems in commercial and industrial applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis saddle tee is suited for commercial HVAC, fire suppression, and industrial piping installations where a grooved outlet branch must be added to an existing or new main line. The 8 inch by 3 inch configuration handles larger main lines with a reduced branch takeoff, making it a common choice in mechanical rooms, equipment connections, and distribution headers. It is appropriate for both new construction and retrofit projects that use grooved-joint piping methods throughout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDuctile iron construction provides high strength and impact resistance in demanding piping environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePainted exterior finish offers corrosion protection during storage and service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGrooved outlet conforms to standard grooved-joint coupling dimensions for reliable mechanical connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e8 inch by 3 inch saddle configuration accommodates large main lines with a reduced branch takeoff\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeighs 12.20 pounds, consistent with heavy-duty commercial and industrial fitting standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style grooved saddle tee fitting for use in Gruvlok-compatible grooved piping systems on 8 inch main lines with a 3 inch grooved outlet branch.\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-joint piping systems. Depressurize and drain the line completely before cutting or modifying the main pipe for saddle tee placement. Follow the applicable mechanical and fire protection codes, such as NFPA 13 for fire suppression systems, and use manufacturer-specified grooved couplings to complete the joint. Inspect the groove dimensions on the branch outlet before assembly to confirm proper coupling seating.\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: 8 inches x 3 inches\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: 12.20 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: 390173847\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51233879032114,"sku":"0390173847","price":210.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/307627702.jpg?v=1780111060","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-390173847-gruvlok-saddle-tee-grooved-outlet-8x3-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
