Saddle valves allow a technician to tap into an existing copper water line without cutting the pipe, making them a common solution for low-flow supply lines to icemakers, humidifiers, and similar appliances. The cs-6 is manufactured in the USA and carries TAA\/BAA compliance, making it suitable for government and institutional projects that require domestically sourced components. Installation requires sweat (solder) connections, so copper-compatible flux and solder are needed on the job.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis saddle valve is used in residential and light commercial plumbing applications where a secondary branch connection must be added to an existing copper supply line. Typical installations include humidifier feed lines on HVAC systems, refrigerator icemaker supply taps, and water treatment equipment connections. Its compact 0.5-inch assembled width makes it practical in tight mechanical spaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSweat (solder) connection type for secure, leak-resistant copper pipe tap\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8-inch nominal fitting connection size\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.5-inch assembled product width — fits in tight installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMade in the USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTAA\/BAA compliant for government and institutional procurement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold individually (package quantity: 1)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style sweat saddle valve for residential and light commercial copper water supply lines requiring a 3\/8-inch nominal branch connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA licensed plumber should perform sweat saddle valve installations where local codes require it. Before beginning work, shut off the water supply to the line being tapped and depressurize by opening a downstream fixture. Use appropriate copper flux and lead-free solder per IPC requirements. Verify line pressure is within the valve rating before restoring supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Sweat (solder)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Fitting Connection Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAssembled Product Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin\u003c\/strong\u003e: USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTAA\/BAA Compliant\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\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: SUPCO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: cs-6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SUPCO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51138402353458,"sku":"CS-6","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/305531100.webp?v=1778255394","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/supco-cs-6-3-8-inch-sweat-saddle-valve","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
