Mueller DR2S1740CC200 Pipe Saddle 16 X 2

Product Description

The MUELLER DR2S1740CC200 is a pipe saddle fitting from the DR2S1740 CC 200 series, sized 16 x 2. Pipe saddles are mechanical fittings used to create a branch connection on an existing pipeline without cutting the main line entirely. This fitting seats against the outside diameter of the main pipe and provides a tapped outlet for the branch. It is typically installed by plumbers, waterworks contractors, or utility crews working on water distribution or service line connections.

The DR2S1740CC200 is suited for applications requiring a branch outlet on a 16-inch main pipe with a 2-inch outlet. This size pairing is common in municipal water distribution, commercial plumbing infrastructure, and industrial piping systems where service taps or branch lines must be added to an existing main. Installation is performed as a single unit per connection point.

Installation Notes

Pipe saddle installation is typically performed by licensed plumbers or waterworks technicians. Depressurize and isolate the main line section before mounting the saddle whenever possible, following applicable IPC or local utility codes. Ensure the saddle seats flush and evenly against the pipe OD before tightening fasteners to avoid leaks. Do not over-torque the saddle bolts; follow the fitting manufacturer torque guidelines if provided with the hardware.
