KAN-therm saddle tee PP with male thread 90 x 1/2" model 04118190

The KAN-therm saddle tee PP with male thread 90 x 1/2" (model 04118190) is a polypropylene saddle fitting designed to create a branch on an existing pipeline. It provides a compact threaded outlet for attaching valves, fittings or instrumentation without replacing sections of the main pipe. The fitting is intended for use in plumbing and heating systems where a durable, corrosion-resistant branch connection is required.

Advantages

This saddle tee is made of polypropylene (PP), offering chemical and corrosion resistance as well as dimensional stability at typical plumbing and heating temperatures. The integrated male thread simplifies connection of standard 1/2" valves and accessories, reducing installation time. Its saddle design allows a secure clamping to the main pipe and a compact footprint that minimizes space requirements on the pipeline.

Suitable for

• Creating a threaded branch connection on existing plastic or compatible pipelines
• Plumbing installations where a 1/2" threaded outlet is required
• Heating system branch connections for valves, sensors or small fixtures
• Retrofit work and on-site extensions without replacing main pipe sections

Key specifications

• Material: polypropylene (PP)
• Saddle connection size: 90 mm
• Threaded outlet: male 1/2"
• Application: plumbing and heating branch connections
• Design: clamping saddle with integrated male thread

How to use

Position the saddle tee on the existing pipeline at the desired branch location, ensuring the pipe surface is clean and free of debris. Follow the manufacturer's recommended clamping or fastening method to secure the saddle evenly around the pipe. Create the branch opening according to accepted practice for the pipe material, then attach the required 1/2" female fitting or valve to the male thread. Verify tightness and perform pressure testing of the system per local regulations and installation standards before commissioning.

Usage recommendations

Use compatible tools for saddle clamping and drilling; avoid excessive torque on the male thread and follow temperature and pressure limits for polypropylene components. For systems carrying potable water or other regulated media, ensure fittings and assembly procedures comply with applicable standards and codes.
