Haihao Group Supplies ASME and EN Standard Carbon Steel Pipe Reducers to UK Customer
Haihao Group has recently completed the production and shipment of a batch of carbon steel pipe reducers for a customer in the United Kingdom. The order includes both ASME B16.9 concentric reducers made from ASTM A234 WPB and EN 10253-2 reducers manufactured from P265GH material, meeting different international pipeline standards.
Pipe reducers play a critical role in pipeline systems by allowing a smooth transition between pipes of different diameters. By supplying both concentric reducers and eccentric reducers, Haihao Group helps ensure compatibility with various pipeline configurations used in industrial facilities.
All products were carefully inspected and treated with appropriate surface protection such as black paint or anti-rust oil coating, ensuring the fittings remain protected during transportation and storage.

- Standard: ASME B16.9
- Material: ASTM A234 Grade WPB
- Surface: Black paint coating
24″ × 18″ Concentric Reducer
- Wall Thickness: STD / WT
- Standard: ASME B16.9
- Material: ASTM A234 Grade WPB
- Surface: Black paint coating
24″ × 20″ Concentric Reducer
- Wall Thickness: STD / WT
- Standard: ASME B16.9
- Material: ASTM A234 Grade WPB
- Surface: Black paint coating
These large-diameter carbon steel reducers are typically used in industrial pipeline systems where flow capacity needs to be adjusted between different pipe sizes.
