I'm wondering if anyone has used their tubing or connectors (to mainline ) fittings? I hear their prices are very good. Where in Canada are they located? Thanks.

I have used their fittings the last two years. The price is good and quality seems good. I think they are made in Quebec. I bought my stuff through a Home Hardware store.

Best mainline saddles I have used. Super easy to install and maintain.

We have a few hundred out and as said before are a great saddle. My only complaint is the entry 90 is rounded on the back side and not squared off like the lapierrre and CDL saddles. Makes is a little trickier pushing the 5/16 on the saddle. We purchased a hot end system last year and that works great to push the line onto the saddle

Just like Jake, I have used the saddles for a few years. I do use a Hot End System to attach the laterals. Love the saddles, have gradually changed over the them as the old saddles begin to leak. Occassionally but rarely I need to retighten one but that is super fast and easy. When I install them I use a 1/4" drive cordless impact tool with a 5/16 nut driver in it and stop tightening as soon as the tool starts to hammer, when checking lines on any that have been on 2 or more years I carry a 5/16 hand nut driver. I don't think I've ever had a leak on one the first year, but you do need to be carefull because they tighten so well that you can easily create a waist in the mainline by over tightening, especially if installing in warmer temperatures. It doesn't seem to be an issue if installed at 40F or colder.

Jake, their new design which is already coming out has a more rigid back making it easier to get the 5/16 line on.
