PE100 Injection Molded Reducing Cross, SDR11/PN16, Butt Fusion
Product Overview
Our PE100 Injection Molded Reducing Cross is a high-performance fitting engineered to create two perpendicular, reduced-diameter branch lines from a single main pipeline. Manufactured as a monolithic piece from premium PE100 resin, it represents the pinnacle of strength and reliability, far surpassing fabricated alternatives which contain inherent weak points at weld seams. With a high-pressure rating of PN16 (SDR11), this reducing cross is built for demanding applications in municipal water supply, gas distribution, and industrial fluid transport. Its primary advantage is its ability to replace a complex assembly of multiple tees and reducers, resulting in a more compact installation, fewer required welds, and superior hydraulic flow characteristics.
Key Features
- Monolithic Strength: The one-piece injection molding process creates a flawless fitting with uniform wall thickness and no internal stresses or weld seams, ensuring maximum durability under pressure and external loads.
- High-Pressure Performance: Rated for PN16 (SDR11), this fitting is suitable for high-pressure main lines, guaranteeing a safe and long-lasting connection in critical infrastructure projects.
- Optimized Hydraulic Flow: The smooth, internally contoured design minimizes turbulence and pressure loss compared to sharp-angled fabricated fittings, enhancing overall system efficiency.
- Simplified Installation & Design: Using a single reducing cross instead of multiple fittings (e.g., two tees and reducers) significantly reduces the number of butt fusion joints required, saving valuable time, labor costs, and inspection efforts on-site.
- Proven PE100 Material: Guarantees exceptional resistance to corrosion, abrasion, chemical attack, and UV degradation, ensuring a service life of over 50 years in most applications.
Available Types / Connection Methods
This fitting is designed for butt fusion welding on all four ends according to DIN standards. It is available in a wide range of size combinations (Main DN x Branch DN), including but not limited to: 90×63, 110×63, 160×110, 200×110, 250×160, 315×200, and 400x200mm.
Applications
An ideal solution for creating branch networks in:
- Municipal water and natural gas distribution networks.
- Fire hydrant main lines and sprinkler systems.
- Industrial process piping for chemical plants and manufacturing facilities.
- Mining applications for slurry and dewatering pipelines.
- District cooling and heating systems.
