Flange-To-Flange Adapters
Types of Flange-to-Flange Adapters: Straight Reducers vs. Conical Reducer
Straight Reducers
Straight reducers provide a direct and linear transition between two different flange sizes. These fittings are ideal for applications requiring a straightforward connection with minimal flow disruption. Straight reducers are commonly used in systems where limited space and a compact connection are necessary.
Conical Reducers
Conical reducers offer a tapered transition between flanges of different sizes. This gradual change in diameter helps to maintain smooth flow characteristics and minimize turbulence, making them suitable for applications where maintaining optimal flow dynamics is crucial. Conical reducers are often used in systems that require precise control over pressure and flow rates.
