For municipal water crews, every service connection needs to be completed safely, efficiently and with minimal disruption. The REED Feed Tap is designed for the day-to-day demands of live tapping, helping operators make service connections on pressurized water mains with confidence. Its continuous cutting operation drills through the corporation stop and pipe wall while retaining the coupon in a single step, reducing handling and helping keep the system clear.
Different pipe materials require different approaches, and the Feed Tap gives operators options. When working with cast iron, ductile iron or polyethylene pipe, crews can use a power drill to speed up the operation and reduce physical effort. For PVC and CPVC, manual operation provides better control and helps prevent overcutting. The result is a tool that adapts to the material rather than forcing operators to compromise.
REED Manufacturing is based in Erie, Pennsylvania, and has supplied the industry with high-quality pipe tools and vises for more than 125 years.
