A lined eccentric reducer is designed to reduce the pressure in a pipe by creating a seal between the pipe and the fitting. A lined eccentric reducer is often used in high-pressure applications, such as oil and gas pipelines, where the pressure inside the pipe can be very high. Lined eccentric reducers are also used in water and wastewater treatment systems, where the pressure inside the pipe can be very high.
Lined eccentrics are made from PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) or FEP (fluorinated ethylene propylene), synthetic rubber resistant to corrosion. The seal created between the pipe and fitting is created by lining the inside of the fitting with PTFE or FEP. The sealing material is then coated with PTFE or FEP, creating a tight seal between the pipe and the fitting.
