Tapping Saddle Clamp Rp 1 1/4" Stainless Steel AISI 304 PN16

  Data Sheet |   Product Range

The Georg Fischer Multi/Clamp Saddle Stud Rp 1 1/4" is an engineered stainless steel tapping saddle designed for creating secure threaded branch outlets on pressurized or non-pressurized utility pipelines. Fabricated entirely from AISI 304 stainless steel (grade 1.4301 / A2), this tapping saddle delivers exceptional resistance against aggressive soil conditions, atmospheric corrosion, and chemical exposure. All metallic components undergo automated robotic welding and full chemical passivation within a dedicated stainless-only manufacturing facility, eliminating cross-contamination and mitigating intergranular corrosion risks over long operational lifecycles.

Engineered to provide dependable sealing integrity under demanding service conditions, the clamp incorporates a high-performance NBR (Nitrile Butadiene Rubber) waffle gasket certified according to EN 682. The profiled rubber structure accommodates minor pipe surface irregularities, ensuring an impermeable seal at nominal working pressures up to 16 Bar. The NBR compound operates reliably across a wide temperature spectrum from -10 degrees C to +70 degrees C, making it fully suitable for potable water distribution, industrial cooling circuits, non-potable utility systems, and combustible gas conveyance networks.

This 1 1/4" female threaded (Rp) saddle stud clamp is purpose-built for installation on rigid pipe substrates, including ductile iron, grey cast iron, carbon steel, and asbestos cement (AC) mains. By facilitating rapid branching and hot-tapping operations, it significantly shortens maintenance windows, lowers labor overhead, and prevents costly network shutdowns during infrastructure extensions. Please note that saddle stud configurations are specifically designed for metallic and cementitious piping and are not intended for use on thermoplastic or plastic pipes.
