Serial number
- Every SAV valve has a unique serial number, shown on the valve label; Serial number provides complete traceability to the date the valve was built – and every operation performed throughout the manufacturing process
- SAV is the only gate valve and fire hydrant manufacturer in the USA with a Quality Assurance program that requires serializing every product for traceability
HDPE Pipe
- MJ connection is designed so HDPE pipe (up to DR9) can be used without beveling the pipe for disc clearance
