Constructed from 304 stainless steel, this insert reinforces the pipe end at the joint and is rated to 3,000 psi. The socket weld x socket weld end connection provides a clean, strong joint when welded in place. At 0.12 pounds, it is a compact, lightweight component suited for plumbing, industrial process piping, and mechanical systems. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of fitting where code and system design call for socket weld connections in stainless applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is appropriate for residential and commercial piping installations where 304 stainless steel is specified for corrosion resistance. The 3\/8 x 1\/8 inch sizing makes it a common choice for reducing insert applications in moderate to high-pressure lines. It is typically used in process systems, HVAC hydronic loops, and plumbing runs where socket weld joints are required and long-term material integrity is a priority.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e304 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in wet and process environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated to 3,000 psi for use in high-pressure piping systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSocket weld x socket weld end connections for strong, permanent joints\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8 x 1\/8 inch fitting size for reducing insert applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.12 pounds, easy to handle during installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation insert fitting for socket weld piping systems requiring 3\/8 x 1\/8 inch stainless steel components rated to 3,000 psi.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or certified pipefitter in accordance with applicable codes such as the IPC and ASME B16.11 socket weld fitting standards. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before fitting removal or installation. Socket weld fittings require proper fit-up and certified welding procedures — do not attempt to tighten or seal without completing the weld. Inspect the fitting and pipe end for burrs or damage before assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 3\/8 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\u003ePressure Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3,000 psi\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\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.12 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40175300\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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-0602\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51541825356082,"sku":"SW3480D-0602","price":37.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/993a085a27df821bce43e6babd014662_d0df558e-6833-439c-aef7-3a1d241e14dc.jpg?v=1785885987","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-brass-sw3480d-0602-pipe-insert-3-8x1-8-ss-3000-psi","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
