PLIDCO’s Hot Tapping+Saddles are easily and safely installed. Steel GirderRings hold seals in place to protect from damage and displacement during installation. When used for plugging operations, PLIDCO Hot Tapping+Saddles are designed to include clamping areas to restrict movement of the fitting when setting the plug. Installation is quick; bolt it on according to the torque specifications, assemble tapping equipment, perform a hydrotest and proceed with the operation. When conditions are favorable, our Hot Tapping+Saddles can be permanently welded to the pipeline. These are designed to ASME code section VIII and meet the intent of API 6H/6X to make branch connections on existing pipelines or for plugging operations without welding. Better yet, it can be reclaimed, reconditioned and used again if not welded to the pipeline.
