A pipe tapping saddle for a main pipe having a center axis and conveying a medium. The pipe tapping saddle includes a saddle piece; a branch pipe having a center axis, a drill socket having a center axis, and a drill with a thread being arranged displaceably in the drill socket for tapping the main pipe. The pipe tapping saddle is arranged on the main pipe. A center axis of the branch pipe runs horizontally and is arranged below an upper crown point of the main pipe.

An electroweldable branch fitting for high diameter pipes comprises at least a first collar (20, 20) provided with a predetermined radius of curvature (R), wherein the collar (20, 20) identifies on opposite sides a concave surface (21) and a convex surface (22), further comprising at least one first electrical wire winding (23) associated with the concave surface (21) of the collar (20, 20) and carrying one first pair of electrical terminals (24), arranged on the convex surface (22) of the collar (20, 20) for applying an electric current adapted to cause the electrofusion of the collar (20, 20), wherein the concave surface (21) of the collar (20, 20) is continuous, i.e. not perforated, and wherein the first electrical wire winding (23) is uniformly distributed on the concave surface (21) at least in the central part thereof, the collar (20, 20) being provided with a branch sleeve (30), centrally on the convex surface (22), for the connection to a branch pipe, the branch sleeve identifying a blind hole (32) having a bottom wall (32) consisting of the wall of the collar (20, 20).

A bell end adapter arrangement facilitates assembly of conduit sections through which associated electrical wiring and/or cables are routed. The arrangement includes a bell end adapter assembly having an outer bell end adapter, and an inner sleeve portion fixed within the outer adapter. The adapter assembly particularly facilitates routing of wiring from a conduit section positioned within a concrete slab or like flooring element, with the adapter assembly configured to be inserted into the slab and joined to the conduit section disposed within the slab. The adapter assembly has a outwardly flared, bell-shaped open mouth which is configured to receive a second conduit section through which wiring form the first conduit section is routed.

A pipe clamp for a main pipe conveying a medium. The pipe clamp includes a saddle member and bearing elements, wherein the bearing elements are arranged on the saddle member. The pipe clamp further includes a tension unit, wherein the tension unit comprises at least one band for encircling the main pipe, a band linkage, and a clamping lever. The band linkage and the clamping lever are each arranged at one end of the at least one band and are opposite one another. An extension is arranged on the clamping lever, and the extension is configured to be removed from the clamping lever after the tension unit is firmly clamped on the main pipe.

A rigid conduit (for example, a metal conduit) featuring an electrofusable section secured to the rigid conduit to allow the rigid conduit to be electrofusion welded to another component of the fueling installation, such as a sump or further electrofusable conduit, is provided by the present disclosure. In certain exemplifications, multiple spaced electrofusable sections are provided on the rigid conduit, with corrosion resistant sections spanning the electrofusable sections in certain arrangements.

A portable assembly for securing a plastic fitting to a plastic pipe by employing fusion or thermal sealing is disclosed. The assembly is secured to the outer circumference of a plastic pipe at a desired location. The assembly can be secured at any longitudinal and lateral position along a plastic pipe. A heater heats both the pipe and the fitting to the point where they begin to melt. The heater is then removed and the fitting is pressed onto the surface of the pipe, thus fusing the fitting to the pipe. After cooling, the assembly is removed and the surface of the pipe within the interior of the fitting is drilled or removed. This now enables fluid within the pipe to be sent to the fitting and onto distribution lines which are connected to the fitting.

Fittings to join and tightly seal tubes such as plastic tubes used in but not limited to various plumbing applications. The fittings allow for rigorous and non-destructive tests of the integrity of seals, where the integrity of seals can be readily and quickly tested one by one, as a pipe system is being built. The seals can also be tested again, after installation and completion of the plumbing arrangement. The fitting comprises two pairs of sealing zones, each pair having in between sealing zones a pressure testing chamber with an inlet, which allows for pressurizing the chamber and testing the integrity of the adjacent seals. The fittings have a series of cold zones that enhance flexibility and integrity of the fittings.
