Asc Engineered Solutions 390009348 Grooved Reducing Coupling

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 390009348 is a grooved reducing coupling designed to connect pipe sections of two different diameters in grooved piping systems. This fitting transitions from a 3-inch pipe to a 2-inch pipe and is constructed from ductile iron for reliable performance in demanding mechanical piping applications. It is compatible with standard roll-grooved and cut-grooved pipe ends and is used in hydronic, fire protection, and industrial piping systems. Licensed plumbers and mechanical contractors are the primary installers of this fitting.

This grooved reducing coupling is suited for commercial and industrial piping installations where pipe size reductions are required within a grooved mechanical joint system. Typical applications include HVAC hydronic distribution, fire suppression mains, and process piping where a secure, leak-resistant transition between a 3-inch and a 2-inch line is needed. Its ductile iron construction supports use in both above-ground and below-ground configurations depending on the system design and applicable codes.

Key Features

• Reduces from 3 inches to 2 inches within a grooved piping system
• Ductile iron construction for strength and durability in mechanical piping
• Compatible with standard roll-grooved and cut-grooved pipe ends
• Eliminates the need for threaded or flanged reducers in grooved systems
• Weighs 4.30 pounds per unit for manageable field handling

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style grooved reducing coupling for use with standard grooved-end pipe systems in commercial and industrial mechanical piping applications.

Installation Notes

Installation of grooved couplings should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified mechanical contractor in accordance with applicable codes including the IPC. Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before removing or installing any grooved fitting. Ensure pipe ends are properly grooved to the correct specification and that the gasket is seated correctly before tightening the coupling housing. Do not use this fitting on pipe ends that are damaged, out-of-round, or improperly grooved.
