METER MOUNTING ABSTRACT A mounting for adjustably securing a meter to a pipe, The preferred embodiment of the mounting includes a one-piece, unitary saddle member, leveling member, and U-bolt which extends substantially about the pipe and is attached to the saddle member to secure it to the pipe. The saddle member has front and rear portions with the leveling member being mounted to the front portion of the saddle member. The rear portion of tile saddle member has two serrated sections extending outwardly of the center of the saddle member and the mounting sits on the pipe with only the leveling member and each of the two sections of the rear portion engaging the pipe. In operation, the saddle member is rotated about the longitudinal axis of the pipe to the desired position and secured in place with the U-bolt. The saddle member is then pivoted generally about an axis transverse to the pipe's axis by selectively moving the leveling member to raise or lower the front portion and rock the saddle member about the two sections engaging the pipe. The two sections flare outwardly for fitting a wide variety of different, sized pipes while still maintaining the seating of the mounting as a three point or area contact on the pipe. Additionally, the serrations have rounded end portions so that the saddle member can be easily and smoothly rocked about them to position the meter in a true vertical orientation for proper operation.
