Concentric butt-weld reducer 160X90 SDR11, water-gas 70067169011AGR

PE symmetrical butt fusion reducer for water and gas networks

The symmetrical butt fusion reducer enables a smooth transition between pipes of different diameters while maintaining full system tightness. The product is used in water and gas networks where a reliable connection between elements with diameters of 160 mm and 90 mm is required.

The symmetrical design reduces stress at the connection point, which translates into long-term stability of the entire pipeline system. Due to the use of PE, the product exhibits excellent resistance to chemical agents present in both drinking water and natural gas.

Materials and technical parameters

The fitting is made of high-quality PE with an SDR11 rating, which guarantees optimal wall thickness relative to the internal diameter. The SDR11 standard ensures an excellent ratio of mechanical strength to material flexibility, allowing operation under pressures characteristic of typical distribution networks.

The reducer dimensions are 160 × 90 mm, allowing for precise fit to standard infrastructure pipelines. The product weight of 1.06 kg indicates a solid construction while maintaining practicality for transport and installation.

Installation method and connection durability

The reducer is installed using the butt fusion method - the most reliable way of joining PE elements in pressure installations. This process creates a uniform molecular bond between the fitting and the pipes, eliminating the risk of weak points or leaks.

Butt fusion guarantees tightness comparable to a material monolith, which is particularly important in gas applications where even minimal leaks can lead to serious safety consequences.

Operational advantages and compatibility

The reducer ensures the hydraulic stability of the system by eliminating sudden changes in the flow cross-section. The symmetrical design reduces turbulence of the transported medium, which translates to lower pressure losses and limits the risk of sediment formation.

The PE material exhibits natural resistance to electrochemical corrosion and the action of most chemical substances found in drinking water and natural gas. Thanks to this, the reducer maintains its parameters throughout its entire service life without the need for maintenance or preventive replacement.

The versatility of application in water and gas systems eliminates the need to use various types of fittings for individual media, simplifying material logistics during the implementation of infrastructure investments.
