Introduction & Uses
Fernco have designed a range of lateral connection saddle products specifically for smooth PVC pipes to ensure the market has an ‘off the shelf’ solution for the most common connections. Fernco’s range of ‘TA Saddles’ for smooth PVC ensure an airtight and watertight seal between a sewer or surface water pipe and a smaller lateral (or branch) pipe.
Saddles offer the same solution as pipe junctions, for example, lateral pipes from new build houses, road gullies etc, need to be connected into the system mains.
Here are some of the main benefits:
- Lower materials cost – the larger the pipes the greater the savings become
- Savings in labour time and cost
- No heavy lifting equipment required
- Improved health & safety
