Dresser vs Other Brands We Carry

Need Dresser Smith-Blair (also on our site) Verdict
Wide range service saddle T3: 2 to 48 in, 0.9 in range Style 377: wide range, all stainless, 4 to 12 in T3 covers far more sizes; Smith-Blair 377 is a solid choice inside 4 to 12 in
Transition coupling TX3: dual layer gasket, 2 to 24 in Style 413: steel transition coupling, 2 to 24 in Both cover 2 to 24 in; TX3 trades steel for FBE ductile iron and a removable inner gasket

We carry both brands. Send the pipe OD and material and we quote the better fit.

Choose NPT or CC to match your corporation stop.
