Hydrant: 5 1/4" American-Darling B-84-B-5 Overview
11/30/2012
The American−Darling B−84−B−5 hydrant is rated at 250 psig and is seat tested at 500 psig. This hydrant meets or exceeds all requirements of AWWA C502 for dry-barrel hydrants. The all-bronze seat and bronze drain ring assure that the B−84−B−5 hydrant is easily repaired by just one person.
