Low temp carbon steel reducer eccentric reducer SA420 WPL3-WPL6
A butt weld pipe fitting is designed to be welded on site at its end(s) to connect pipe(s) together and allow change in direction or pipe diameter, or branching or ending.
This fitting then becomes part of a system for transporting fluids (oil, gas, steam, chemicals, …) in a safe and efficient manner, over short or long distances.
A reducer allows for a change in pipe size to meet flow requirements or to adapt to existing piping. The length of the reduction is usually equal to the average of the larger and smaller pipe diameters. Reducers are typically concentric, but eccentric reducers can be used to maintain the same top of pipe or bottom of pipe level. The alloy is used for pipe fittings of carbon steel and alloy steel for low-temperature service. The alloy contains high weldability and durability which is useful in making a good quality product.
