316 Stainless Steel Forged Pipe Reducer Coupling Fitting - 1" x 3/4" Socket Weld Female - 6000 psi Pressure Rating - Ideal for High-Pressure Plumbing, Industrial Piping & Hydraulic Systems

Forged pipe fittings are used in heavy industries with high pressure and corrosive conditions. They also have a thicker wall. There is a marking on the collar portion of the fittings. The purpose of the marking is to ease identification and ensure smooth system operation. It may include the fitting size, class pressure, specification, brand, origin, connection type, material grade and heat number.The purpose of reduced coupling is to connect pipes of different diameter. It is also known as pipe coupling. Reduced coupling is highly sought after because not only it helps to stop the pipe run within the piping system, it can also help operators and users to extend the piping system by connecting 2 different pipe sizes together. Reduced coupling also helps to repair any leaking or damaged pipes. Reduced coupling forged pipe fittings are made in accordance of ASME B16.11 standard. Class pressure of 6000 will have a 6M marking. It is bigger, heavier, thicker, and have a higher working pressure. The material used is stainless steel SS316. The available connection is socket weld. Installing a forged pipe fitting depends on the connection type. This reduced coupling has two female socket welded ends. The ends are of different sizes. The male thread will be inserted into the female end. For this type of connection, the plain end pipe will be inserted into a recessed area of the fitting prior to welding.
