Stainless Steel 316/316L Butt-Weld Pipe Fitting, Concentric Reducer Coupling, Schedule 10, 4" X 1-1/2" Pipe Size

The Merit Brass reducer coupling is a schedule 10 stainless steel 316/316L pipe fitting with butt-weld connections for connecting and extending two concentric pipes of different sizes going in the same direction. This concentric reducer coupling connects two pipes of different sizes along the common pipe axis and it has butt-weld, beveled openings for welding pipes together with a tight seal. The low-carbon content of this stainless steel 316/316L pipe fitting minimizes harmful carbide precipitation during welding, ensuring corrosion resistance. It meets both 316 steel strength standards and 316L extra-low carbon standards for quality assurance.

Pipe fittings are components used for connecting, terminating, controlling flow, and changing the direction of piping in many different industries. When purchasing pipe fittings, consider the application, as this will affect material type, shape, size and required durability. Fittings are available threaded or unthreaded, in many shapes, styles, sizes, and schedules (pipe wall thickness).

Merit Brass manufactures pipe nipples following ISO 9001 standards for quality assurance. Family-owned since 1937, Merit Brass is based in Cleveland, OH, and serves the United States and Canada.
