Construction Details
The SCI Sanitary Weld End Concentric Reducer is offered as Fig. S77L31W4 in 304 stainless steel and Fig. S77L31W6 in 316/L stainless steel.
The concentric body transitions between different sanitary tubing sizes while keeping both connections on a common centerline, providing a symmetrical transition through the fitting.
SCI sanitary fittings are manufactured for hygienic process piping applications and provide product traceability through SCI identification, heat number, and country-of-origin markings.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a sanitary weld end concentric reducer?
It is a stainless steel sanitary fitting used to transition between different tubing sizes while keeping both connections on a common centerline.
What are the SCI figure numbers?
The 304 stainless steel version is Fig. S77L31W4, while the 316/L stainless steel version is Fig. S77L31W6.
What materials are available?
ASC offers this sanitary weld end concentric reducer in 304 stainless steel and 316/L stainless steel.
What type of connections does the reducer use?
The fitting uses sanitary weld ends on both sides for welded installation into compatible stainless steel tubing.
How is a concentric reducer different from an eccentric reducer?
A concentric reducer keeps both connections on a common centerline, while an eccentric reducer offsets the smaller connection.
What is the advantage of a concentric transition?
The centered configuration provides a symmetrical transition between different tubing sizes while maintaining a common piping centerline.
Does the fitting provide material traceability?
SCI sanitary fittings are marked with the SCI logo, heat number, and country of origin for product and material traceability.
What should I confirm before ordering?
Confirm the required stainless steel grade, tubing connections, concentric configuration, and compatibility with the sanitary process system.
Important Ordering & Installation Notes
- Select 304 or 316/L stainless.
- Verify both tubing connections.
- Confirm concentric configuration.
- Follow sanitary welding procedures.
- Maintain proper fitting alignment.
