Steel reducing nipple KAN-therm 76.1 x 54 mm model 6206398

KAN-therm steel reducing nipple 76.1 x 54 mm model 6206398 is a solid pipe fitting manufactured for creating a mechanical transition between two cylindrical pipes of different diameters. Constructed from steel, the reducing nipple provides a stepped reduction from 76.1 mm to 54 mm and is intended for use where a robust, rigid connection is required in plumbing, heating and industrial piping systems.

Advantages

The steel construction ensures high mechanical strength, resistance to deformation and reliable performance under typical installation stresses. The stepped design simplifies alignment when joining larger and smaller pipes and reduces the need for additional adapters. The consistent dimensions and machining quality contribute to repeatable, leak-free joints when installed according to applicable standards and practices.

Suitable for

• Plumbing systems where a durable size reduction is required
• Heating installations including radiators and boiler connections
• Industrial piping and process lines with stable pressure and temperature ranges
• Workshops and service applications for repair or retrofit of pipe networks

Key specifications

• Material: steel
• Connection type: reducing nipple with stepped diameters
• Large end diameter: 76.1 mm
• Small end diameter: 54 mm
• Intended use: permanent mechanical reduction between cylindrical pipes

How to use

Prepare the pipe ends by ensuring they are clean, deburred and free of scale or corrosion. Verify that the mating pipes match the specified diameters for the large and small ends. Position the reducing nipple and apply the appropriate joining method for steel fittings used in the installation—this may include welding, threading or using compatible mechanical couplings depending on system design and local codes. After assembly, inspect the joint for correct alignment and perform a pressure test or leak check according to the system requirements.

Usage recommendations

Verify compatibility of materials and the selected joining method with system pressure, temperature and media. Use corrosion protection or coatings where required by the application environment. Follow local plumbing and heating codes and the manufacturer’s installation guidance for steel pipe fittings to ensure safe and durable operation.
