From seshires.com:

The leadpipe is the first point of contact with the player after the mouthpiece. It plays an important role in determining the overall feel and sound of the instrument. The diameter of the venturi, the material of the pipe and its length all have a significant effect on the instrument's playing characteristics.

S.E. Shires trombone leadpipes are made to fit handslides of a specific bore size (if the handslide is dual bore, this is the bore of the upper tube—the smaller diameter of the two). The leadpipe prefix represents the bore size that it is designed to fit and indicates mouthpiece shank size compatibility.
