These durable saddles clamp securely around the pipe, allowing you to drill and thread in accessories for reliable inline measurement or nutrient\/chemical dosing. Ideal for hydroponic recirculating systems, nutrient film technique (NFT), deep water culture (DWC), irrigation lines, aquaponics, and water treatment applications where clean, leak-free integration is essential. Available Variations Select your pipe size and thread type based on your needs: 50 mm PVC Pipe with 1\/2″ Female BSP Thread Universal option for standard accessories. Compatible with: Standard 12 mm electrode holders 1\/2″ injection valves \u0026amp; dosing fittings Perfect for general inline pH\/EC monitoring or nutrient injection. 40 mm PVC Pipe with 1\/2″ Female BSP Thread Same universal compatibility as above, but sized for smaller 40 mm pipelines. Great for compact hydro setups or branch lines. 50 mm PVC Pipe with 3\/4″ Female BSP Thread Specially designed for Aqua Master Tools inline electrodes (3\/4″ male thread models only). Ensures a perfect, secure fit for continuous inline pH\/EC monitoring with Aqua Master probes. 40 mm PVC Pipe with 3\/4″ Female BSP Thread Tailored exclusively for Aqua Master Tools inline electrodes (3\/4″ male thread). Ideal for smaller-diameter systems requiring precise Aqua Master sensor integration. Key Benefits Across All Models Tool-Free Clamp Installation — Position, bolt on, drill, and thread — minimal effort and no pipe cutting required Leak-Free Performance — Durable PVC construction with secure bolting; use PTFE tape or appropriate gaskets\/seals for tight connections Inline Convenience — Enables real-time monitoring or dosing directly in the flow for accurate nutrient management Hydro \u0026amp; Irrigation Optimised — Built tough for long-term use in wet, high-humidity environments Easy Expansion — Add sensors, dosers, or probes anywhere along your PVC lines Simple Installation Steps (All Models) Position the saddle around the clean PVC pipe in your desired location. Securely fasten it using the included bolts (tighten evenly for a firm grip). Drill through the opening in the threaded port to access the pipe interior (use appropriate drill bit size). Apply sealing (e.g., PTFE tape or gasket) and screw in your electrode holder, injection valve, or compatible Aqua Master electrode. Test for leaks and ensure proper alignment before full system pressurisation. Important Notes Select the correct saddle for your exact pipe diameter (40 mm or 50 mm) — saddles are not interchangeable between sizes. The 3\/4″ versions are exclusively for Aqua Master Tools inline electrodes with 3\/4″ male threads — not compatible with other fittings or sensors. Always follow manufacturer guidelines for drilling and sealing to maintain system integrity and pressure ratings.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Aqua Master","offers":[{"title":"3\/4 Inch","offer_id":43320495439939,"sku":"TESAQU158","price":33.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1\/2 Inch","offer_id":43320495472707,"sku":"TESAQU162","price":33.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0692\/2449\/7219\/files\/aqua-tapping-saddle-40mm-34_1_ccd7215b-8f21-48da-a4ad-ec5747295c85.jpg?v=1779976113","url":"https:\/\/professormonstera.com.au\/products\/aquamaster-tapping-saddle-50mm","provider":"Professor Monstera Plants","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
