Carbon steel reducer
What is Carbon steel reducer?
Carbon steel reducer as the name suggests the use of carbon steel material, is a kind of welded joint. The main representatives are ASTM A234 WPB, A860 WPHY 65 and A420 WPL6. It used to connect pipes of two different diameters. According to the different shape, there are concentric reducer and eccentric reducer. The center of a circle on the same straight line at both ends of the pipe is called concentric reducer, otherwise it is called eccentric reducer.
- Carbon Steel Concentric Reducer
The concentric reducer is made with both inlet and outlet on a common center line. Compare with eccentric type, it is less costly to manufacture adaptable to most piping installations.
- Carbon Steel Eccentric Reducer
The eccentric reducer has the reducing outlet end off center. In contrast with concentric reducer, It can be hung or suspended flush against a flat ceiling or wall.
Carbon steel reducer production
A reducer is a pipe fitting used for pipe calibers. The commonly used forming process is reducing pressing, expanding pressing or reducing plus expanding pressing. And stamping can also be used for some specifications of reducers.
- Reducing/expanding forming
The process of carbon steel reducer is to put the pipe blank with the same diameter as the big end of the head into the forming die. By pressing the pipe blank along the axial direction, the metal moves along the die cavity and shrinks to form. According to the size of the reducer, it can be divided into one pressing forming or multiple pressing forming.
- Stamping forming
In addition to using steel pipe as raw material to produce the reducer, some specifications of the size of the head can also be produced by steel stamping process. And then, the shape of the die used for drawing is designed according to the size of the inner surface of the head. And the steel plate after blanking is pressed and drawn by the die.
The production processing flow of reducer:
What are the main applications of carbon steel reducer?
The inside and outside of the large and small heads are treated with high-grade polishing equipment to meet the requirements of surface precision.
Firstly, carbon steel reducer is applied to chemical, petroleum, metallurgy, light industry, electric power, plumbing, food, medicine, fiber, ink and other industries of water, gas, steam, oil products and corrosive media control.
Secondly, sanitary valves, fluid pipe fittings, special industry pipe fittings and mechanical supporting equipment can be used in dairy, pharmaceutical, beer, beverage, edible oil and other industries, to meet its professional requirements.
Finally, according to the different standard system production of products, It can be suitable for the corresponding supporting equipment standard system. Moreover, according to the requirements of users, the production of non-standard products, suitable for special purposes.
Attention: The reducer is also suitable for pipe diameter reduction in the environmental dust removal industry. Generally steel plate rolling cutting and welding, pipe diameter size is different. The material is generally hot rolled coil, the application is very good, can save costs.
