It connects 1\/2-inch to 1\/8-inch pipe lines using socket weld end connections on both sides, creating a reinforced transition that resists pull-out and maintains pressure integrity. The 304 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance suitable for a wide range of fluid and gas service applications. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors typically install this fitting in high-pressure systems where joint reliability is critical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is suited for use in industrial, commercial, and mechanical piping systems where a reducing insert is needed between 1\/2-inch and 1\/8-inch socket weld pipe connections. It is appropriate for applications involving water, steam, hydraulic fluids, and compatible process media at pressures up to 3,000 psi. The 3000-class pressure rating makes it a practical choice for high-pressure lines in mechanical rooms, process piping, and instrumentation supply runs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3,000 psi pressure rating for demanding high-pressure service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e304 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in wet and process environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSocket weld on both ends for secure, weld-in installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReducing configuration: 1\/2 inch to 1\/8 inch for pipe size transitions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact and lightweight at 0.12 pounds for easy handling 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 fitting for 3000-class socket weld piping systems using 1\/2-inch to 1\/8-inch reducing connections in 304 stainless steel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified pipefitter or licensed plumber in accordance with applicable piping codes such as ASME B31.1 or B31.3. Depressurize and isolate the line completely before cutting into any existing piping. Socket weld fittings require proper fit-up and certified welding procedures to achieve rated pressure performance. Do not use thread sealants or mechanical compression methods on socket weld ends.\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: 1\/2 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: 0.12 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-0802\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51540619034930,"sku":"SW3480D-0802","price":20.48,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/993a085a27df821bce43e6babd014662_28b8cb4a-51c5-4255-91e6-e5e64c3f455e.jpg?v=1785860246","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-brass-sw3480d-0802-pipe-insert-1-2x1-8-ss-3000-psi","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
