Carbon Steel Reducer
Reducer is a kind of pipe fittings used for connecting pipes of different sizes, whose angles are mainly 30 degree, 45 degree and 60 degree. Carbon steel reducer is also a common reducer material, relatively inexpensive and widely applicable. However, it has poor corrosion resistance and is prone to rust. According to the different materials used in the reducer, its pressure resistance, corrosion resistance, temperature resistance, life and other characteristics are not the same. Therefore, in the purchase of reducers, you need to select the material according to the specific use of the environment and needs.
Overview
Feature:
Reducers can decrease the installation and maintenance costs of piping systems. Because reducers are able to connect pipes of different diameters, they can reduce the number of large-diameter pipes used in the design of the piping system, reducing material and engineering costs. During the maintenance process, the maintenance work on the piping system can be reduced due to fewer piping connection points.
Reducers can be designed to change the flow rate and direction of a fluid. In some applications to be special, the need for fluid speed regulation and flow direction change. The use of reducer can be changed through the connection of different caliber parts, to achieve the flow rate and direction of flow control.
Reducer has good pressure resistance, and can withstand certain internal and external pressure. In the high-pressure piping system, the use of reducers can effectively enhance the pressure-bearing capacity of the pipeline to ensure the safe operation of the piping system.
Reducers have better sealing performance. Due to the one-piece design of the reducer, no additional sealing material is required to make the connection, thus reducing the risk of leakage and improving the sealing performance of the piping system when in use.
Reducers are suitable for connecting pipes of various materials. Whether it is metal pipes, plastic pipes or glass pipes, reducers made of different materials can be used to connect to meet the needs of various materials pipes.
