This insert measures 1\/4 x 1\/8 inches and carries a pressure rating of 3,000 psi, making it suitable for demanding fluid and gas distribution lines where corrosion resistance and joint integrity are critical. It connects via socket weld on both ends, requiring a qualified welder or pipefitter for proper installation. This is a precision-machined fitting intended for professional trade use in industrial and commercial piping applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis insert fitting is used in high-pressure piping assemblies where a socket weld connection style is specified. The 304 stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for systems handling corrosive media, potable water, steam, or chemical process lines. Typical installation scenarios include mechanical rooms, process piping runs, and utility service connections where a 1\/4 to 1\/8 inch reduction is required within a socket weld piping train. It is sold individually and is suited for both new construction and maintenance replacement work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e304 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in wet and chemical environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3,000 psi pressure rating for high-pressure service applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSocket weld x socket weld end connections on both ends\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/4 x 1\/8 inch fitting size for precise size reduction in piping runs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact, precision-machined insert profile for consistent fitment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component for 3,000 psi-rated socket weld piping systems using 304 stainless steel fittings in the 1\/4 x 1\/8 inch size range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation requires a certified pipefitter or welder experienced with socket weld fittings and stainless steel materials. Shut down and depressurize the piping system fully before removal or installation of any fitting. Follow applicable ASME B16.11 standards for socket weld fitting installation, including proper gap and weld procedures. Do not exceed the rated 3,000 psi pressure limit for this fitting class.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Insert\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 x 1\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: 304 Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: Socket Weld x Socket Weld\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePressure Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3,000 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.08 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: SW3480D-0402\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51540143833394,"sku":"SW3480D-0402","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/993a085a27df821bce43e6babd014662_1831b2fd-a922-47f4-98a0-4d3964c480c1.jpg?v=1785846966","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-brass-sw3480d-0402-pipe-insert-1-4x1-8-ss-3000-psi","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
