Tool Make-Up
Tool Make-up Measurements
The overall tool length is measured from the cap on the
fitting gland, to the center of the concave side of the
branch saddle which butts against the main pipe.
NOTICE:
Allowance for face off and bead rollback during
fusion must be added to the measurement.
NOTICE:
Make-up lengths in the table below are calculated
using the cutter that comes with the tool so that the cutter
does not cut through the opposite side of the pipe. If using a different length cutter, adjust the make-up length
accordingly.
The make-up length is different for each size tapping tool and is calculated using the cutter that comes with the tool.
Example:
Using a 2" Hot Tap Tool, user wants to use a 3-5/8" length cutter instead of the 2-5/8" length cutter that
comes with the tool.
Recalculated make up length:
36-1/2" – 2-5/8" = 33-7/8 + 3-5/8" = 37-1/2"
NOTICE:
If hot tapping a main of same size as the branch, ensure
the cutter diameter is less than the inside diameter of the main
pipe.
