BMAG Introduces an Innovative Dual-Material Saddle Clamp for Enhanced Safety and Cost-Effectiveness

BMAG is proud to unveil its newly developed Saddle Clamp, ingeniously engineered with a pioneering dual-material construction. This design strategically combines the distinct advantages of two specialized alloys:

• Upper Section (Wetted Part): Crafted from high-quality, lead-free brass. This material choice is paramount for applications involving potable water, ensuring full compliance with stringent water quality and safety standards by preventing lead contamination.

• Lower Section (Support Structure): Manufactured from durable bronze. Bronze provides excellent strength, corrosion resistance, and structural integrity necessary for a secure and long-lasting clamping mechanism.

Key Advantages Over Traditional All-Bronze Saddle Clamps:

1. Enhanced Water Safety: The use of lead-free brass in the upper section, which is in direct contact with the conveyed fluid, guarantees that the Saddle Clamp meets or exceeds health regulations for drinking water systems. This provides peace of mind and ensures the preservation of water purity.

2. Significant Cost Savings: By optimizing material selection—using premium lead-free brass only where it directly impacts water safety and robust bronze for structural support—BMAG has achieved a more cost-effective manufacturing process. These savings can be passed on without compromising on safety or performance.

3. Optimized Performance: This hybrid design doesn’t just cut costs and ensure safety; it leverages the best properties of each material. The lead-free brass offers excellent machinability and corrosion resistance for the fluid-contacting surfaces, while the bronze base ensures a strong, reliable grip and long-term durability in various environmental conditions.

BMAG’s innovative approach with this dual-material Saddle Clamp offers a superior solution that intelligently balances material costs, regulatory compliance, and unwavering performance. It represents a smart choice for professionals seeking a reliable, safe, and economically advantageous saddle clamp for their water system installations.
