Arctic Driver Saddles

Under Pressure Ferrule Extraction System

The Arctic Driver Saddles allow the extraction and ferrule replacement operation to be quickly and safely undertaken.  There is also no need to drill the main further, as the existing ferrule hole is used, and therefore, potential leaks and any risk of cracking the main are reduced.
