Stainless steel threaded reducing nipple 4" x 2" 6245-400200

Reducing threaded nipple made of stainless steel

This reducing threaded nipple, made of high-quality stainless steel AISI 316L, is a reliable and durable solution for connecting pipes of different diameters. It is a connecting element designed for systems requiring corrosion resistance and resistance to aggressive media. Thanks to the use of stainless steel, this nipple is perfect for water installations, including systems for potable water, as well as in chemical applications.

Construction and application

The nipple has tapered external gas threads (BSPT) with diameters of 4" and 2", ensuring a tight and secure connection. The simple construction facilitates assembly and disassembly, and the material guarantees long-term operation even in harsh conditions. It can be used as a replacement for brass fittings, offering significantly higher corrosion and mechanical damage resistance. It is ideal for building industrial installations, heating, cooling systems and in sanitary applications.

Advantages and benefits

• High corrosion resistance: Stainless steel AISI 316L (1.4408, 1.4404) provides exceptional resistance to chemical substances and corrosion, extending the life of the installation.
• Wide range of applications: The possibility of use with drinking water and various chemicals makes it a universal connecting element.
• Durability: Stainless steel is characterized by high mechanical strength, which guarantees a reliable connection even at high pressure (maximum working pressure is approximately 10.5 bar / 150 lbs).
• Thermal resistance: The nipple retains its properties over a wide temperature range – up to a maximum of 220°C.
• Material identification: Each fitting is marked with the symbol "g316" or "g6", which facilitates identification of the material of manufacture.
• Easy installation: BSPT threads ensure quick and easy installation without the need for specialized tools.

The nominal connection diameter 1 is 4 inches (100), and the nominal connection diameter 2 is 2 inches (50). Both connections are tapered external gas threads (BSPT), and the material is stainless steel. The nipple has a simple construction.
