Built from 304 and 304L stainless steel with an SBR rubber gasket, it fits 12-inch pipe with an outside diameter range of 12.9 to 13.3 inches and accepts an 8-inch tap. The flanged outlet is drilled and recessed to ANSI Class 125 and 150 bolt patterns, allowing direct connection of standard tapping valves. The sleeve is fully passivated for enhanced corrosion resistance. NSF 372 certified and manufactured in the USA, it is installed by licensed plumbers and water distribution crews on municipal and industrial piping systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tapping sleeve is suited for wet-tap applications on a wide range of pipe materials, including steel, cast iron, asbestos cement, and plastic. It is commonly used in municipal water distribution, industrial process piping, and fire protection systems where a live branch connection must be made to an active main. The 8-inch flanged outlet accommodates full-size tapping valves and cutters used in standard hot-tap procedures. Its stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for corrosive soil conditions and potable water service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFits 12-inch pipe with an OD range of 12.9 to 13.3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e8-inch flanged tap outlet drilled to ANSI Class 125 and 150 bolt patterns\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e304 and 304L stainless steel body, fully passivated for corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSBR rubber gasket seals across multiple pipe materials including steel, cast iron, asbestos cement, and plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNSF 372 certified for lead-free compliance in potable water service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets AWWA C-223, AWWA C-228, ASTM A-240, ASTM D-2000, MSS SP-60, and MSS SP-124 standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMade in the USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use on 12-inch outside diameter pipe within the 12.9 to 13.3 inch OD range, including steel, cast iron, asbestos cement, and plastic pipe.

The existing main does not need to be depressurized for a hot-tap installation, but all personnel and equipment must be rated for the operating pressure, which must not exceed 200 psi. Verify OD of the existing pipe before ordering to confirm the sleeve range is appropriate. Use tapping valves and cutter assemblies rated for the full tap size and pressure class.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFits Pipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOD Range\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12.9 to 13.3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTap Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: Flanged\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Reducing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 200 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: 304 and 304L Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGasket Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: SBR Rubber\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNSF Certified\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes, NSF 372\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAWWA Standards\u003c\/strong\u003e: AWWA C-223, AWWA C-228\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eASTM Standards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASTM A-240, ASTM D-2000\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMSS Standards\u003c\/strong\u003e: MSS SP-60, MSS SP-124\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin\u003c\/strong\u003e: USA\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: ROMAC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 103-1330081\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ROMAC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51233394491698,"sku":"103-1330081","price":3655.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/307626298.jpg?v=1780098903","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/romac-103-1330081-tapping-sleeve-12x8-inch-stainless","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
