⚙️ Product Description
The Weldolet 16" × 2" MSS SP-97 IRE x B is an integral reinforced branch outlet fitting installed on a 16-inch main pipeline to create a 2-inch branch connection.

The Integrally Reinforced End (IRE) provides a reinforced transition area between the branch outlet and the run pipe, improving stress distribution and enhancing the structural integrity of the piping system.

The Beveled End (B) is prepared for direct butt-welding connection with the branch pipe, ensuring a secure welded joint suitable for high-pressure piping applications.
