Description
Sanitary Weld End Eccentric Reducer
ASC / SCI Sanitary Weld End Eccentric Reducers provide an offset transition between two different tube sizes in compatible sanitary stainless steel tubing systems.
Available in 304 stainless steel and 316/L stainless steel, these weld-end reducers are designed for hygienic process piping where an eccentric transition helps maintain an offset flow path between different tubing sizes.

Construction Details
The SCI Sanitary Weld End Eccentric Reducer is offered as Fig. S77L32W4 in 304 stainless steel and Fig. S77L32W6 in 316/L stainless steel.
The eccentric body transitions between different sanitary tubing sizes while keeping the smaller connection offset from the centerline of the larger connection.
SCI sanitary fittings are produced to 3-A Sanitary Standards, with applicable stainless steel sanitary tubing dimensions and materials conforming to ASTM A269/A270. SCI identification, heat number, and country of origin provide material traceability.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a sanitary weld end eccentric reducer?
It is a stainless steel sanitary fitting used to transition between different tubing sizes while keeping the smaller connection offset from the centerline of the larger connection.
What are the SCI figure numbers?
The 304 stainless steel version is Fig. S77L32W4, while the 316/L stainless steel version is Fig. S77L32W6.
What materials are available?
ASC offers this sanitary weld end eccentric 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 permanent welded installation into compatible stainless steel tubing.
How is an eccentric reducer different from a concentric reducer?
An eccentric reducer offsets the smaller connection, while a concentric reducer keeps both connections on a common centerline.
Is this fitting produced to sanitary standards?
Yes. SCI sanitary tubing and fittings are produced to 3-A Sanitary Standards.
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, eccentric configuration, and compatibility with the sanitary process system.
Important Ordering & Installation Notes
- Select 304 or 316/L stainless.
- Verify both tubing connections.
- Confirm eccentric orientation.
- Follow sanitary welding procedures.
- Maintain proper fitting alignment.
