About HDPE Pipe Saddle
An HDPE Pipe Saddle is a type of fitting used to create a branch connection on an existing HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene) pipe. It consists of a saddle-shaped body with a reinforced section that houses a threaded outlet or a socket outlet for connecting the branch pipe. This allows for the insertion of a smaller pipe into the main pipeline, typically at a 90-degree angle, to facilitate the connection of a branch line. To install an HDPE Pipe Saddle, the saddle is positioned over the main HDPE pipe at the desired location for the branch connection.
