Full encirclement saddle
Full encirclement saddle
(OP)
Hello All,
I'm reviewing a work order for already installed line and I came across "Full encirclement saddle."
My question is: Is this a pressure containing component? I know that it may have a vent hole, but I want to know if a full encirclement saddle is pressure containing or non-pressure containing device. Thanks

Sometimes its possible to do all the right things and still get bad results

Another important use of a full enciclement pad is to where longitudinal welded atachments to pipe are not allowed, such as some nuclear and HP pipeline designs and in piping subjected to severe acoustic or flow induced vibration.

There are frankly a whole lot of past and present devices that could either accurately or imprecisely described with these three words, and for a whole lot of purposes. Some could certainly be argued to now or in the future be "pressure containing", and some maybe not.
