Product Overview
Stainless steel reducers are essential fittings used to connect pipes of different diameters in piping systems. They help maintain smooth flow transitions, reduce pressure loss, and prevent turbulence. Reducers come in two main types: Concentric Reducer (aligned centerline) and Eccentric Reducer (offset centerline), each suitable for specific flow and drainage applications.

FAQ
Q1: What is the difference between concentric and eccentric reducers?
A: Concentric reducers have aligned centerlines and are used in vertical pipelines. Eccentric reducers have an offset centerline, ideal for horizontal pipelines to avoid air accumulation or drainage issues.
Q2: Can reducers be used for high-pressure pipelines?
A: Yes. We offer reducers with thicknesses from SCH10S to XXS suitable for both low- and high-pressure systems.
Q3: Are reducers compatible with seamless pipes?
A: Absolutely. Our reducers are available in both seamless and welded options, depending on project needs.
Q4: Do reducers come with material test certificates?
A: Yes. All products include MTC 3.1 or other certifications as per customer requirements.
Q5: Can I order reducers in special grades like 904L or Duplex?
A: Yes, we manufacture reducers in special alloys including Duplex 2205, Super Duplex 2507, 904L, and more.
