Constructed with a stainless steel strap and a nylon body, this saddle provides corrosion resistance and reliable sealing in water distribution and service line applications. It is used to create a new branch connection on an existing main without requiring a full line shutdown for fitting replacement. Licensed plumbers and water system contractors are the primary installers of this type of saddle fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis saddle is suited for residential and light commercial water service applications where a branch tap is needed on an 8-inch main. The FIPT end connection allows direct thread engagement with standard iron pipe thread fittings and valves. It is commonly used in municipal water service, irrigation mains, and fire protection distribution lines where a secure, single-strap branch connection is appropriate for the operating conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFits 8-inch pipe with a 1-1\/2-inch FIPT tap outlet\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStainless steel strap provides corrosion resistance and clamping strength\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNylon body resists chemical degradation in water service environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFIPT end connection compatible with standard iron pipe thread fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSingle strap design for straightforward field installation on existing mains\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and new-installation saddle fitting for 8-inch outside-diameter pipe requiring a 1-1\/2-inch FIPT branch tap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or water system contractor in accordance with local plumbing codes and IPC requirements.
