The clamp wraps the tube, seals against a drilled hole, and gives you a reducing take-off in 20mm tube, 25mm tube or 1\/2 in female NPT. No cutting the main, no removing a 16 ft stick, no re-supporting the run.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor a plant that rearranges, this is the single most useful fitting in the Quick-Lock range.

Tell us how many drops you are adding and what the main is, and we will send the right clamps, the correct drill jig and bit, and the tube and brackets to finish the job. Every fitting carries Champion's Lifetime Warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan I install a saddle clamp on a live, pressurized main?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Isolate and depressurize the section before you drill it. The clamp is designed so you do not have to \u003cem\u003edismantle\u003c\/em\u003e the main, which is a different thing from drilling it under pressure. Close the isolation valve, bleed the line, drill, fit, then bring the pressure back up in stages and check for leaks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDo I really need the drill jig?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, for a clamp outlet you intend to keep. The jig holds the bit square to the tube and centres the hole, and the clamp's gasket relies on both. Champion catalogs one bit for 25mm to 32mm and another for 40mm to 63mm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow much flow will a saddle clamp outlet pass?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is a reducing take-off, so the branch is limited by the branch size, not the main. A 20mm branch carries about 36 CFM at 125 PSIG over 100 ft on Champion's published figures, and a 25mm branch about 76 CFM. That is plenty for a bay, a bench or a single machine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is the difference between the tube outlet and the 1\/2 in FNPT outlet?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe tube version accepts Quick-Lock tube directly and is what you use to run a proper drop. The FNPT version gives you a threaded port right at the main, which suits a short hose reel feed, a gauge or a regulator mounted close to the pipe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan it be removed later?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe clamp itself comes off, but the hole in the tube does not heal. If you remove a saddle outlet permanently, plan on cutting that section out and coupling in a new piece with a straight union connector, or leaving the clamp in place with its outlet plugged.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill it fit another brand of aluminum pipe?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDo not assume so. The clamp is profiled to Champion's tube outside diameter and the gasket seals on that curve.
