Concentric Swage Reducer Standard Weight XS WP-S 316L

Concentric Swage Reducer Standard Weight XS WP-S 316L
The Concentric Swage Reducer Standard Weight XS WP-S 316L is a precision engineered pipe fitting designed for demanding applications where reliability is non-negotiable. Built with seamless 316L low carbon stainless steel, this reducer delivers outstanding corrosion resistance, making it a dependable choice for harsh chemical environments, high-pressure systems, and corrosive media where standard fittings simply fall short. What sets this fitting apart is its concentric design, which keeps both pipe centerlines perfectly aligned during the transition between pipe diameters. This is critical in vertical pipeline installations and pump discharge lines, where misalignment can lead to costly inefficiencies or system failures. The dual wall thickness configuration Standard (STD) at the larger end and Extra Strong (XS) at the smaller end, is purposefully engineered to distribute stress effectively at the most vulnerable pressure points, extending the service life of the connection and reducing maintenance demands.
Versatile by design, this swage reducer bridges butt welded pipes to smaller socket-weld or threaded pipes, making it a practical solution across a wide range of industrial configurations. 

Summary: 

• Reducing fitting typically used to join a butt-welded pipe with a smaller socketweld or threaded pipe, or to act as a heavy-duty connector for instrumentation
• Used to connect two pipes of different diameters while maintaining aligned centerlines
• Seamless fitting
• 316L low carbon which provides excellent corrosion resistance
• Standard (STD) applies to the thicker large end, while Extra Strong (XS) applies to the smaller end to account for higher stress points under pressure

Applications: 
Commonly used in vertical pipelines, high pressure systems, corrosive environments and pump discharge lines
