Romac 292-069072 Bronze Dual Strap Saddle 6 in Pipe

Product Description

The ROMAC 292-069072 is a Style 202B dual strap bronze saddle fitting designed for tapping into 6-inch water mains and distribution lines. Manufactured from C83600 silicon bronze, this saddle provides a corrosion-resistant, pressure-rated branch connection with a 2-inch NPT tap outlet. The dual strap design distributes clamping force evenly around the pipe, maintaining a secure seal across the specified pipe outside diameter range. It is installed by licensed plumbers and waterworks contractors working on municipal water service laterals and branch connections.

This saddle fitting is suited for residential and light commercial water service applications where a branch tap is required on a 6-inch main. The NPT outlet accepts standard threaded fittings and valves for service line connections. The silicon bronze body meets AWWA C-800 standards, making it appropriate for potable water systems. It is commonly used by waterworks crews and plumbing contractors for new service taps or replacement of existing saddle assemblies on distribution mains.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or waterworks contractor in accordance with local codes and AWWA standards.
