Sch40 SNAP-ON SADDLE (IPS O.D. x FIPT)

Product Overview

System shutdowns during the height of the summer heat can lead to rapid turf desiccation and costly crop loss, putting your reputation on the line. When a secondary zone needs to be added to an existing main or a repair requires a new lateral connection, traditional cut and glue methods consume hours of valuable labor. With the peak season approaching and supply chain lead times remaining unpredictable, waiting for back-ordered specialized fittings can derail your project deadlines. Planning ahead by stocking your service trucks ensures you can address unexpected field modifications immediately, keeping your inspectors satisfied and your projects on schedule.

The Lesso Schedule 40 Snap-On Saddle provides a significant technical advantage over standard tee fittings by eliminating the need to cut into existing lines. This design reduces water waste from draining the system and saves your crews substantial time on labor intensive excavations. Unlike lower grade economy clamps, these saddles are engineered for a precise IPS outer diameter fit to ensure a leak free seal under pressure. Maintaining a full inventory of these components gives your business a competitive edge, allowing you to finish more service calls per day with fewer return visits for leaks.

Key Features

  • Engineered for high impact resistance to withstand the rigors of commercial job site handling.
  • Snap-on design allows for rapid attachment to existing Sch 40 PVC pipelines without cutting the pipe.
  • Precision molded FIPT threads ensure a secure and watertight connection with standard plastic or metal male adapters.
  • Resistant to corrosion and chemical degradation common in fertigation and soil treatment applications.
  • Slim profile design allows for installation in tight trenches where space for traditional fittings is limited.
  • Consistent wall thickness per ASTM standards provides long term structural integrity under constant pressure.

Common Applications

  • Commercial landscape irrigation
  • Residential lawn and garden systems
  • Sports turf and golf course maintenance
  • Municipal parks and public spaces
  • Greenhouse and nursery operations
  • Potable water supply systems

Installation Notes

Before installation, ensure the exterior of the existing pipe is clean and free of debris for a proper seal. Apply an approved PVC solvent cement to both the saddle underside and the main pipe surface before snapping the fitting into place. Always follow local plumbing codes regarding the use of snap-on fittings for pressurized mains and allow for appropriate cure times before testing the system at full operating pressure.
