Construction Details
The Gruvlok Fig. 7073SS is an eccentric stainless steel reducer designed to transition between different grooved pipe sizes while keeping the pipe alignment offset to one side.
Fabricated fittings are manufactured from 304 or 316L stainless steel conforming to ASTM A312 and are available in Schedule 10 and Schedule 40 wall construction. This product is the Schedule 10 configuration.
ASC specifies that the pressure rating of an eccentric reducer is based on the weakest end of the fitting and the pressure capability of the components used in the connected grooved piping system.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Gruvlok Fig. 7073SS?
The Fig. 7073SS is a stainless steel grooved eccentric reducer used to transition between different pipe sizes in compatible grooved piping systems.
What stainless steel materials are available?
Fabricated Gruvlok stainless steel fittings are available in 304 and 316L stainless steel.
What pipe schedule is this reducer?
This product is the Schedule 10 configuration of the Gruvlok stainless steel eccentric reducer.
What type of connections does the reducer use?
The reducer uses grooved ends for connection with compatible grooved couplings and piping components.
Why use an eccentric reducer?
An eccentric reducer transitions between different pipe sizes while maintaining an offset alignment rather than a centered transition.
What material standard applies to fabricated fittings?
The ASC submittal specifies 304/316L fabricated stainless steel fittings conforming to ASTM A312.
How is the pressure rating determined?
The pressure rating should account for the lowest-rated connected component and the weakest end of the eccentric reducer.
What should I confirm before ordering?
Confirm the stainless steel grade, Schedule 10 requirement, grooved connections, reducer configuration, and required installation orientation.
Important Ordering & Installation Notes
- Confirm Schedule 10 construction.
- Select the required stainless grade.
- Verify both grooved connections.
- Confirm eccentric reducer orientation.
- Check connected component ratings.
