Romac 294-132062 Bronze Saddle 12 in Pipe 1-1/2 in Npt Tap

Product Description

The ROMAC 294-132062 is a double-strap bronze saddle fitting designed for tapping into 12-inch C900 and ductile iron pipe. It provides a secure, corrosion-resistant connection point for branch taps in pressurized water distribution systems. The saddle accepts a 1-1/2 inch NPT outlet and is rated for service up to 200 psi. NSF certified and AWWA C-800 compliant, this fitting is built for municipal, utility, and commercial water service work. Installation is performed by licensed plumbers and water system contractors. The all-bronze construction resists corrosion in buried and exposed applications.

This saddle is suited for potable water distribution, irrigation mains, and fire protection branch connections on 12-inch C900 PVC or ductile iron pipe. The double-strap design distributes clamping load evenly around the pipe, maintaining a leak-free seal under sustained operating pressure. A 1-1/2 inch NPT female tap outlet accommodates standard service line connections and ball corporation stops. Manufactured in the USA, the 294-132062 meets the quality standards required for municipal water infrastructure projects and commercial site work.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or water utility contractor in accordance with AWWA standards and local codes. Depressurize and isolate the main line before drilling and installing the saddle where system design permits, or use an approved tapping sleeve procedure for live taps. Torque saddle straps evenly in alternating sequence to ensure uniform gasket seating without distorting the pipe. Verify NSF-compliant thread sealant is used on all NPT connections in potable water service.
