ANSI B16.9 TP316 reducer

Reducing pipes, also known as reducers, are one of the pipeline fittings used in fluid pipeline construction for connecting two different pipe diameters. They can be divided into RC concentric reducers and RE eccentric reducers according to their shapes. Reducing pipe/reducer is a type of pipe fitting used for pipe diameter changes. The commonly used forming processes include reducing diameter pressing, expanding diameter pressing, or reducing diameter plus expanding diameter pressing. For some small-sized reducing pipes, stamping forming can also be used

Reducing pipes can be divided into carbon steel according to their manufacturing materials: (20 #, A3, Q235, Q23 excellent, Q235B, 20G, 16Mn, Q345, Q345R, ASTM A234WPB, ASTM A105, etc.); Stainless steel: (304, 304L, 316, 316L, S30408, S30403, S31608, S31603, SUS304, ASTM A403, TP321, TP317L, 347, 0Cr18Ni9, 00Cr19Ni10, 00Cr17Ni14Mo2, 1Cr18Ni9Ti, 06Cr17Ni12Mo2, 022Cr17Ni12Mo2, etc.); Alloy steel: (16MnR, Cr5Mo, 12Cr1MoV, 10CrMo910, 15CrMo, 12Cr2Mo1, A335P22, St45.8/III, A10bB, etc.); Special alloy steel: (TP310S, 904L, Incoloy800, Incoloy825, Incoloy600, Incoloy625, etc.); Dual phase stainless steel: (F51, S31803, S2205, F53, 2507, S32750, F55, 2607, S32760, etc.)

ANSI B16.9 TP316 reducer application: When the fluid flow rate in the pipeline changes, such as increasing or decreasing, the flow rate requirement does not change much At all times, reducing pipes are required; To prevent cavitation during pump procurement, it is necessary to use a reducing pipe; In order to match with the joints of instruments such as flow meters and regulating valves, reducing pipes are also required. At present, most pipe networks require the use of reducers, mainly used in petroleum, chemical, gas, steam pipe networks, hydraulic machinery, etc
