Romac 283-h066372 Service Saddle 6.63 in 2 in Fipt Awwa C-906

Product Description

The ROMAC 283-h066372 is a ductile iron service saddle designed for tapping HDPE pressure pipe with a 6.63-inch outside diameter. It accepts a 2-inch female iron pipe thread (FIPT) tap and is rated at 150 psi working pressure. The saddle body is constructed of ductile iron with a fusion-bonded black nylon coating for corrosion protection. An NBR rubber gasket provides a reliable seal against the pipe wall. This fitting is manufactured to meet AWWA C-906 standards and carries NSF certification, making it suitable for potable water distribution systems. It is typically installed by licensed plumbers or water utility crews during service line connections.

This service saddle is engineered for use on HDPE pipe in municipal water distribution, rural water systems, and commercial site utility applications. The 6.63-inch pipe fit and 2-inch FIPT tap outlet make it a direct-service connection point for residential and light commercial water service taps off a main distribution line. The fusion-bonded nylon coating and stainless steel hardware suit it for direct-burial and corrosive soil environments where bare iron would be at risk.

Key Features

• 2-inch FIPT tap outlet for direct threaded service line connection
• Ductile iron body with fusion-bonded black nylon coating for corrosion resistance
• NBR rubber gasket for sealing against HDPE pipe surface
• Stainless steel hardware resists corrosion in direct-burial applications
• NSF certified for potable water service
• Rated at 150 psi pressure class

Compatibility

Designed for HDPE pipe with a 6.63-inch outside diameter, conforming to AWWA C-906. The 2-inch FIPT outlet is compatible with standard iron pipe thread service fittings and corporation stops used in potable water distribution systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or certified water utility technician in accordance with local plumbing codes and AWWA standards. Depressurize and isolate the main line before drilling and saddle installation. Ensure the pipe surface is clean and free of debris before seating the NBR gasket. Follow AWWA tapping procedures and torque the saddle bands evenly to maintain uniform gasket compression without over-stressing the HDPE pipe wall.
