Superior Material and Surface FinishConstructed from premium gunmetal or brass, our Light Duty Saddle ensures robust support and durability. With surface finish options including polished, natural, or electroplated, the saddle matches both aesthetic and functional requirements. The LG2 grade gunmetal and IS 319 grade brass provide high tensile strength, excellent corrosion resistance, and seamless performance even in demanding environments.
Flexible Installation and Secure GripThe split half-round design with a flanged base and twin bolt holes allows for straightforward bolt-on installation on threaded pipes. Suitable for round galvanized, copper, brass, or plastic pipes, sizes range from inch to 2 inches (BSP). The pre-drilled twin bolt securing system provides a secure, vibration-resistant grip, ideal for light-duty water, plumbing, or gas pipe support.
Reliable Performance and ComplianceOperating safely up to 200C and offering tensile strength up to 250 MPa, the Light Duty Saddle is engineered for reliable performance. It meets IS:318 or equivalent standards, and is customizable to customer specifications. The saddle is delivered in standard export packaging or tailored packaging as required, making it suitable for distributors, exporters, manufacturers, and service providers.
FAQs of Light Duty Saddle - Materials Gunmetal or brass:
Q: How is the Light Duty Saddle installed on pipes?
A: The Light Duty Saddle is installed using a simple bolt-on process. Its split half-round clamp with pre-drilled twin bolt holes allows it to be securely attached to round threaded pipes using two bolts. This method ensures a firm, vibration-resistant grip without the need for specialized tools.
Q: What types of pipes are compatible with this saddle?
A: This saddle is suitable for galvanized, copper, brass, or plastic round pipes with threaded ends, within the size range of inch to 2 inches (BSP). Its design facilitates secure mounting for light-duty water, plumbing, or gas applications.
Q: When should I choose gunmetal versus brass for the saddle material?
A: Choose gunmetal (LG2 grade) when higher corrosion resistance and tensile strength are required, especially for outdoor or harsh environments. Brass (IS 319 grade) is favorable for indoor applications and provides reliable performance under standard operating conditions.
Q: Where can the Light Duty Saddle be used?
A: The saddle is suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations thanks to its excellent corrosion resistance. It is commonly used in water, plumbing, and gas pipe support systems in residential, commercial, and industrial settings.
Q: What surface finishes are available for the saddle?
A: Customers can select from polished, natural, or electroplated surface finishes. Each option is designed to enhance appearance, resist corrosion, and match application-specific requirements.
Q: How does the saddle enhance pipe system reliability?
A: By firmly securing pipes using its twin bolt system and flanged base, the saddle prevents pipe displacement, reduces vibration, and supports structural integrity. It operates efficiently up to 200C and resists corrosion, contributing to a longer service life of pipe systems.
Q: What quality standards and packaging does the saddle comply with?
A: The Light Duty Saddle meets IS, BS, or specific customer standards (e.g., IS:318 for gunmetal, IS 319 for brass). Packaging is available in standard export form or tailored to client requirements, ensuring safety during transit and ease of handling.
