Part of the Romac 202NS series, this saddle features a ductile iron clamp body with a 10 to 12 mil fusion bonded nylon coating for corrosion resistance, paired with a nitrile butadiene rubber (NBR) gasket that seals against pipe ODs ranging from 2.38 to 2.5 inches. The 1 in FNPT outlet accepts standard threaded fittings, and the saddle is secured with 1\/2 in UNC 304 stainless steel bolts. Plumbers and waterworks contractors install this fitting on pressurized pipelines to add service connections without full pipe replacement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis saddle is suited for residential and light commercial water service taps, irrigation laterals, and municipal distribution applications where a reliable, pressure-rated branch connection is needed on a 2 in nominal pipe. The double strap design distributes clamping load evenly around the pipe, making it appropriate for installations where vibration or pressure fluctuation is present. The domestically manufactured construction meets the demands of field service work on both new installations and existing pipeline retrofits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated to 350 psi for pressurized water line tapping applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDuctile iron clamp body with 10 to 12 mil fusion bonded nylon coating for corrosion protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNitrile butadiene rubber gasket provides a reliable seal on pipe ODs from 2.38 to 2.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1 in FNPT outlet for direct connection to standard threaded pipe or fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e304 stainless steel 1\/2 in UNC bolts resist corrosion in wet or buried environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDomestic manufacture  -  made in the US\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use on 2 in nominal pipe with an outside diameter of 2.38 to 2.5 inches.

Depressurize and isolate the line before installing where service conditions permit, or follow wet-tap procedures with appropriate equipment if a live tap is required. Torque both saddle bolts evenly to ensure uniform gasket compression and a leak-free seal. Verify that local codes and applicable standards (such as AWWA or IPC) are met before restoring pressure to the line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 202NS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e: Double Strap\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 in FNPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHole Diameter (OD Range)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.38 to 2.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePressure Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 350 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClamp Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ductile Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGasket Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Nitrile Butadiene Rubber\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBolt Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: 304 Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBolt Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 in UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10 to 12 mil Fusion Bonded Nylon Coated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.88 inches L x 4.7 inches W\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin\u003c\/strong\u003e: US\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: 286-025042\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ROMAC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67581982146866,"sku":"286-025042","price":166.77,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/859b5c63167566e1758566c39b0a1645.jpg?v=1790411077","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/romac-286-025042-double-strap-pipe-saddle-2-in-1-in-fnpt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
