ASME B16 9 Reducing / Unequal Cross Manufacturer

What is a Reducing Cross?

A Reducing Cross is a type of buttweld pipe fitting that has four outlets arranged in a cross shape, but with different diameters on the branch pipes. Unlike an equal cross—where all four ends are the same size—a reducing cross connects pipes of different sizes, allowing for a change in pipe diameter in multiple directions within a piping system. It is used to distribute or collect fluid from different pipelines efficiently, especially when the system design requires branching with varying flow rates.

Reducing crosses are manufactured according to international standards such as ASME B16.9, MSS-SP-43, and DIN specifications. They are available in materials like stainless steel, carbon steel, alloy steel, duplex, and super duplex steel, ensuring durability and resistance to corrosion or pressure. The fitting can be seamless, welded, or fabricated, depending on the application’s requirements. Its precision-engineered design ensures smooth flow transition, minimizing pressure loss and turbulence in the system.

Reducing crosses are widely used in industries such as oil & gas, petrochemical, chemical processing, power generation, water treatment, and shipbuilding. They are ideal for complex piping networks where multiple lines need to be connected or branched with different diameters. These fittings are particularly beneficial in high-pressure and high-temperature systems where reliability and leak-free performance are crucial. The reducing cross helps optimize space and material usage while maintaining a strong, consistent, and efficient flow throughout the pipeline.
