What Is Stainless Steel Eccentric Reducer?
Stainless steel eccentric reducer is a pipe fitting used in piping systems to connect two pipes of different diameters. It is made by expanding or reducing stainless steel pipes. Unlike stainless steel concentric reducer, it has an edge that is parallel to the connecting pipe, referred to as the flat side. This parallel edge results in the two pipes having offset center lines. Therefore, they create asymmetrical flow conditions: flow is faster along the angled side, resulting in increased pressure.

Stainless Steel Eccentric Reducer Properties
Using stainless steel eccentric reducers offers several advantages:
Firstly, crafted from stainless steel, it is renowned for its resistance to corrosion and rust, which is suitable for various environments and applications.
Secondly, the eccentric design allows for a smooth transition of flow, minimizing disruptions and pressure drops within the piping system.
Additionally, using stainless steel eccentric reducer helps maintain the overall efficiency and performance of the pipe system by preventing the formation of air pockets and turbulence.
Stainless Steel Eccentric Reducer Applications
Stainless steel eccentric reducers can be used in various piping systems and applications. It is commonly found in industries such as oil and gas, chemical processing, water treatment, food processing, pharmaceuticals, industry, etc. They are suitable for applications that require a change in pipe size while maintaining the flow characteristics of the system.
*Notice: stainless steel eccentric reducers are usually used with horizontally installed fluid pipes as it has one flat side that is useful for discharging gases or liquids and for opening and retaining the reducer.
