Constructed from 304L stainless steel, this fitting uses a butt weld end connection on both ends, making it suited for permanent, high-integrity joints in process, industrial, and commercial plumbing applications. At 1.6 pounds, it is a single-unit fitting intended for professional installation by qualified pipefitters or plumbers. The eccentric geometry maintains a flat bottom along one side of the fitting, which is critical for drainage and proper flow alignment in horizontal runs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis eccentric reducer is used in commercial and industrial piping systems where a flat-bottom profile is required to prevent liquid accumulation or air pockets at reduction points. Typical installations include process piping, food and beverage lines, pharmaceutical systems, and industrial fluid handling where 304L stainless steel is specified for corrosion resistance and weldability. The Schedule 10 wall thickness makes it appropriate for lower-pressure applications where full Schedule 40 wall mass is not required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEccentric profile keeps one side of the fitting flat for proper drainage alignment in horizontal piping runs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e304L stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance and low-carbon content suitable for welded assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eButt weld connections on both ends for a permanent, full-penetration weld joint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSchedule 10 wall thickness suited for commercial and light industrial low-pressure piping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6 inch to 2.5 inch transition accommodates significant pipe size reductions 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 a 6 inch by 2.5 inch eccentric reduction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified pipefitter or licensed plumber following applicable codes including ASME B31.3 for process piping or local plumbing codes. The system must be fully depressurized and drained before cutting into an existing line. Butt weld connections require proper pipe preparation, fit-up, and welding by a certified welder to maintain joint integrity. Do not use pipe dope, thread sealant, or mechanical fittings in place of the specified butt weld connection method.\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: 6 x 2.5 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: 1.6 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: 01413-9640\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51539623969074,"sku":"01413-9640","price":1953.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/5c7da2a8539f454e6c688762880367b7_a5f446dd-dcae-40d8-b5f8-1c7b526c4086.jpg?v=1785843708","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-brass-01413-9640-eccentric-reducer-6x2-5-in-304l-ss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
