Rapid Tee Saddle
Engineered Precision for Chamber Integration
Rapid Tee delivers robust, fast connections specifically engineered for professionals in sewer, stormwater, and chamber-based infrastructure projects. This versatile connector excels in linking mainline pipes to lateral pipes in collection systems, connecting equalization pipes to main header rows, and integrating with stormwater chambers for enhanced water management. Available in both HDPE Corrugated and Thinwall Plastic configurations, each system consists of one rubber gasket and one 316 stainless steel nut & bolt clamp designed for precision performance.
Engineered for exceptional structural stability with 300 series steel components, Rapid Tee couplings excel in demanding environments including underground, marine applications, saturated soils, contaminated ground conditions, and areas with aggressive groundwater. The advanced band tensioning system ensures secure, watertight seals that prevent leaks, root intrusion, and both infiltration and exfiltration. With integrated sealing O-rings positioned beneath each clamp and synthetic rubber gaskets that remain resilient to ultraviolet exposure, ozone, fungal growth, and typical sewer gases, these connections deliver long-lasting performance across diverse construction projects.
Features
- Dual Configuration Options: Available for HDPE Corrugated pipes (4" and 6") and Thinwall Plastic applications.
- Two-Component Design: One molded synthetic rubber gasket and one 316 stainless steel nut & bolt clamp.
- Advanced Band Tensioning: Axially slotted clamps allow independent adjustment for precise fit.
- Integrated Sealing System: O-rings positioned beneath each clamp for enhanced sealing performance.
- Inner Pipe Stop: Prevents lateral or equalization pipes from protruding into mainline or chamber.
- Pre-Calibrated Installation: Torque system optimized for 60 in./lbs. maximum with 304 series stainless steel hex head screw.
- Standard Tool Compatibility: Requires only standard core bits (5", 6", 7", 8", or 9" depending on application).
- Pressure Resistance: Tested to withstand up to 4.3 psi hydrostatic pressure.
- Environmental Durability: Synthetic rubber resists UV exposure, ozone, fungal growth, and soil erosion.
