Product Details
The Merit 304 Stainless Steel Schedule 40 concentric reducer, measuring 4 inches by 1-1/2 inches, features a butt-weld female design. Butt welding is the preferred method for joining pipe connections, requiring the fitting to have the same wall thickness and diameter as the pipe it connects to. Both the pipe and fitting ends are beveled to butt together, creating a groove to hold the weld filler. This type of fitting offers advantages including lower cost, reduced maintenance, and greater strength compared to threaded joints. The product is made of 304 stainless steel, conforms to Schedule 40 specifications, and is designed for butt welding applications. Warranty terms apply as specified by the manufacturer.
