Tapping Saddles 63mm

Facilitate larger service connections on pressurised mains with 63mm Tapping Saddles. Designed for safety and reliability, this electrofusion fitting allows for the live tapping of water and gas pipelines without interrupting supply.

Why choose 63mm Tapping Saddles?

Also known as Electrofusion Tapping Tees, they are engineered for contamination-free installations. Each unit features an integrated stainless-steel cutting device that cuts a clean, swarf-free core through the pipe wall. Crucially, the cutter creates a permanent seal and captures the pipe coupon (plug), preventing debris from entering the flow stream. Product features include 63mm outlet for high-volume service connections. The cutter acts as a temporary valve during installation and includes multiple seals for a secure fit. Manufactured from virgin PE100 for a homogeneous bond with the main pipe. Suitable for both above-ground and below-ground applications on water and gas lines.

The built-in clamp ensures the saddle is fastened firmly prior to fusion. For a permanent bond, use standard electrofusion welders to power the moulded heating element.
