Swages nipples are a kind of Reducers,but longer than Reducers, and are used more extensively in higher pressure applications.
Swage Nipples are manufactured accordance with MSS–SP–95 , Swage nipples are offered in threaded ends per ASME B1.20.1 and beveled ends per ASME B16.25.
Swages contain a bore, usually matching that of the pipe onto which they are fitting. Because each end is of a different size, the bore – as well as the wall thickness and schedule – of each side can also be different. The swage ends can be plain (PBE, for plain both ends), threaded (TBE, for threaded both ends), bevelled (for butt-welding; BBE, for bevelled both ends), or a combination thereof, depending on the ends of the piping system into which the swage will be fitted.
