What Is a Concentric Reducer?
A concentric reducer is a pipe fitting used to connect two pipes with different outside diameters. Unlike an eccentric reducer, the two ends of a concentric reducer share the same centerline.
Its symmetrical cone-shaped design allows the pipeline diameter to transition gradually from a larger pipe to a smaller pipe.
A concentric reducer is commonly used when maintaining a centered pipeline configuration is important.
Stainless Steel Concentric Reducer Material
304 Stainless Steel
SS304 stainless steel offers good corrosion resistance, strength, and durability for general sanitary piping applications.
Typical applications include:
- Food processing
- Beverage production
- Brewing
- Water and liquid processing
- General sanitary piping
316L Stainless Steel
SS316L stainless steel provides enhanced corrosion resistance and is suitable for more demanding hygienic and process environments.
Typical applications include:
- Pharmaceutical manufacturing
- Biotechnology
- Dairy processing
- High-purity fluid systems
- Hygienic processing equipment
Key Features of Our Concentric Reducer
Concentric Design
The larger and smaller openings are aligned on the same centerline, creating a symmetrical reduction in pipe diameter.
Smooth Diameter Transition
The tapered design provides a gradual transition between different pipe sizes.
Hygienic Stainless Steel Construction
Manufactured from stainless steel with smooth surfaces suitable for sanitary process environments.
SS304 and SS316L Options
Available in 304 and 316L stainless steel according to application requirements.
Multiple Connection Options
Depending on the product configuration, the reducer can be supplied with Butt Weld, Tri-Clamp, or customized sanitary connections.

Concentric Reducer FAQ
What is a concentric reducer?
A concentric reducer is a pipe fitting used to connect pipes of different diameters while keeping both pipe centerlines aligned.
What is the difference between a concentric and eccentric reducer?
A concentric reducer has aligned centerlines and a symmetrical tapered shape. An eccentric reducer has offset centerlines, creating a flat side on the fitting.
What is a stainless steel concentric reducer used for?
It is used to transition between different pipe sizes in sanitary process piping systems.
What materials are available?
Common materials include SS304 and SS316L stainless steel.
Can the concentric reducer be customized?
Yes. Inlet diameter, outlet diameter, length, wall thickness, connection type, material, and surface finish can be customized according to project requirements.
