Optimize Your Water Connections with Cambridge Brass Main Stops
Cambridge Brass Main Stops provide reliable and versatile solutions for water service line connections. These stops are designed to fit copper pipe and CTS (copper tube size) high-density polyethylene pipe, available in sizes ranging from 3/4" to 2". Ideal for installations in both dry and pressurized mains, these stops can be applied using standard tapping machines or saddles, offering flexibility in various installation scenarios.
Features Designed for Efficiency and Reliability
-
Versatile Compatibility: Fits both copper and CTS high-density polyethylene pipes.
-
Easy Installation: Can be installed on a dry main or a main under pressure, with simple tools.
-
Secure Connection: Features CB Compression Ends for a tight and secure fit, ensuring a reliable water seal.
-
Large Wrench Flats: Allows for easy adjustment in the main and simplifies the connection of the service line to the stop.
-
Electrical Conductivity: Includes an electrical conductor spring for copper tubing to ensure proper electrical contact.
Installation and Compliance
Installing a pipe into a Cambridge Brass fitting with CB Compression ends is straightforward. For copper tube or CTS HDPE, the pipe is stabbed through the nut and gasket/friction ring assembly to the required depth. Tightening the H nut compresses the rubber gasket and stainless steel beveled gripper, creating a strong, watertight seal and pull-out strength. While the electrical conductor spring is functional with copper, it becomes non-essential when used with HDPE.
