Description

Threaded Reducing Coupling is a type of pipe fitting used to connect two pipes of different sizes using threads. This product has a large end and a small end, both of which are threaded to connect to the corresponding pipes. Commonly used materials include carbon steel, stainless steel, copper, or aluminum alloy. The product comes in many different sizes and standards to suit many different applications.

Applications

• Oil and gas piping system: Used to connect oil and natural gas pipes of different sizes.
• Water supply and drainage system: Used in water supply and drainage systems of buildings and factories.
• Chemical systems: Used in chemical plants to conduct various chemicals.
• Energy industry: Used in thermal power plants, hydroelectric power plants, and other energy systems.
• Food and beverage industry: Used in food and beverage processing plants to ensure food hygiene and safety.

Standards

ASME B16.11 Standard for Threaded Reducing Coupling specifies the technical and dimensional requirements for threaded pipe fittings.

• Materials: Fittings shall be constructed of carbon steel, alloy steel, or stainless steel, and shall comply with the material requirements of ASTM A105, A182, or other equivalent standards.
• Dimensions and tolerances: The dimensions and tolerances of Threaded Reducing Coupling are clearly defined in the standard, including outside diameter, length, thread depth, and reduction size.
• Working Pressure: ASME B16.11 fittings are designed to withstand specific maximum working pressures, typically 2000, 3000, 6000 psi (equivalent to Class 2000, 3000, 6000).
