Saddle / saddle connection Fabekun DN/OD160 for pipe DN500-600 with ball joint, for connection to the main pipe with wall thickness 30-125mm FAS500150_0026

Saddle connection for concrete and reinforced concrete pipes

The Fabekun DN/OD 160 saddle connection is a solution designed for quick and tight connection of pipes with a diameter of DN500-600 with connecting pipes. The construction with a built-in ball joint provides flexibility and compensation for differences in pipe settlement, which is particularly important in sewage systems. This is an ideal product for both professional installers and end customers who value durability and ease of installation.

Design and application

The connection is designed to work with concrete and reinforced concrete pipes (according to EN 1917 standard), and – with sufficient wall thickness (above 30 mm) – with stoneware pipes. The three-dimensional gasket ensures a perfect fit to the inner radius of the main pipe, guaranteeing a tight connection. The built-in ball joint allows deflection of the connected pipes in the range of 0° - 13°, which allows compensation for uneven settlement and meets the requirements of DWA-A 139 standard. This avoids stress in the connection, which translates into its long-term reliability.

Advantages and benefits

• Quick installation: Installation is done without the need to cut the pipeline, which significantly speeds up work and minimizes disruption.
• Tightness: Ensured by the three-dimensional gasket and precise construction, confirmed by a tightness level of 2.5 bar.
• Flexibility: The ball joint compensates for differences in pipe settlement, preventing stress and damage.
• Anti-corrosion protection: "Assil" resin protects the steel against corrosion, providing long-term protection even in harsh environmental conditions.
• Durability: Resistance to tensile and shear loads guarantees the stability of the connection even during soil compaction around the pipeline.
• Safety: Protects the entire drilled hole in the main pipe, minimizing the risk of structural damage.
• No interference with backfill: Installation does not require disturbing the backfill under the pipeline, maintaining its stability.
• Certificates: Has DIBt and ITB certificates, confirming compliance with the highest standards of quality and safety.
• Versatility: Can also be used for pipes with a repair sleeve, expanding the range of product applications.

This solution is perfect for building domestic connections to the external sewage system, as well as in wastewater, mixed water and rainwater drainage systems. Fabekun is an investment in the durability and trouble-free operation of the sewage system for years to come.
