Abstract

See full text

A mechanical tapping tee assembly and a method for fluidly connecting to a conduit include a body defining a conduit recess for receiving the conduit and further defining a main passage having one end adjacent the conduit recess. A plug is disposed in the main passage preventing fluid communication between at least a portion of the main passage and the conduit recess. A cutter received in the main passage and threadedly engaged with a threaded region of the main passage is selectively advanced and retracted within the main passage upon rotation relative to the body. The cutter includes a cutting edge that taps the plug to fluidly connect the conduit recess and said at least a portion of the main passage and to tap the conduit to fluidly connect the conduit and the main passage.
