ASME B16.11 Stainless Steel 304L Socket Weld Reducer
ASME B16.11 Stainless Steel 304L Socket Weld Reducer Class 3000 | Precision Pipe Connector for Water Treatment Plants
SSM supplies high-precision ASME B16.11 Stainless Steel 304L Socket Weld Reducers, engineered for reliable and leak-free pipe connections in water treatment, chemical, and industrial processing systems.
These forged fittings are designed to handle high-pressure applications (Class 3000) and ensure long-term corrosion resistance and structural integrity.
Product Overview
The Socket Weld Reducer is a forged pipe fitting used to connect pipes of different nominal bores (NB). It allows a smooth transition between two pipe sizes - for example, 15 NB × 20 NB - while maintaining a secure weld joint.
Manufactured according to ASME B16.11, this fitting guarantees precision dimensions, excellent weldability, and high mechanical strength.
Material: Stainless Steel 304L
ASTM A182 F304L is a low-carbon austenitic stainless steel containing 18 % Cr and 8 % Ni.
Advantages include:
Excellent resistance to corrosion and oxidation.
Reduced carbon content minimizes risk of intergranular corrosion after welding.
High ductility and good formability.
Suitable for continuous exposure to freshwater, mild chemicals, and clean-in-place systems used in water treatment facilities.
