Sized at 1-1\/2 inches by 1\/2 inch with butt weld end connections on both ends, it is constructed from 304L stainless steel for corrosion resistance in demanding service conditions. The eccentric geometry offsets the centerlines of the two pipe bores, which is useful for maintaining proper drainage slope and preventing air pockets in horizontal runs. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors are the primary installers of this fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis eccentric reducer is suited for use in low-pressure piping systems where Schedule 10 wall thickness is appropriate. Common applications include process piping, sanitary lines, HVAC chilled water and heating water distribution, and food-grade or pharmaceutical fluid handling where 304L stainless steel meets material requirements. The butt weld connection type requires field welding by a qualified welder following applicable codes. It is sold individually.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEccentric design maintains a flat side to support proper drainage slope in horizontal piping runs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e304L stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance and low carbon content to reduce sensitization during welding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eButt weld end connections on both ends for full-penetration welded joints\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSchedule 10 wall thickness suitable for low-pressure piping applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTransition from 1-1\/2 inch to 1\/2 inch pipe in a single fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for Schedule 10 stainless steel butt weld piping systems requiring an eccentric reducer transition from 1-1\/2 inch to 1\/2 inch pipe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation requires a qualified welder following applicable welding codes such as ASME B31.1 or B31.3 for process and power piping. Shut down and depressurize the piping system and allow it to cool completely before cutting in or replacing any fitting. Proper joint fit-up and purge gas practices should be used when welding 304L stainless steel to prevent oxidation and maintain corrosion resistance. Verify system pressure ratings and applicable local mechanical codes before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Eccentric Reducer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/2 x 1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: 304L Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: Butt Weld x Butt Weld\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSchedule\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.165 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40175300\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: MERIT BRASS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 01413-2408\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51541359788338,"sku":"01413-2408","price":525.61,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/5c7da2a8539f454e6c688762880367b7_bae33519-cedc-468a-be5b-3a10c0ecbe7b.jpg?v=1785873496","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-brass-01413-2408-eccentric-reducer-1-1-2x1-2-304l-ss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
