About Hot Tapping
A hot tap drill is a universal tool that
allows you to manually install a
connection point on pressurized or
unpressurised pipes.
A typical hot tap requires a:
•the hot tapping drill
•tapping saddle / clamp,
•ball valve.
Hot tapping takes approximately 30-
60 minutes, depending on the size of
the hole and the pipe material.
Note: Hot tapping can be dangerous
and should be performed by
experienced technicians only. Care
should be taken when using the hot
tap drill and appropriate personal
protection equipment should be
worn.
Compressed Air Alliance’s hot tap drill
is designed to prevent contamination
from the drilling process entering
into the pipework when used on
pressurized pipework. As the drill bit
starts to pierce the pipe, air pressure
forces loose particles back through
an exhaust chamber in the drill’s
body where they are captured. This
process ensures that no
contamination enters the pipework
when working on pressurized pipes.
