Flanges are drilled to ISO 7005-2 PN16 pattern, allowing straightforward bolted connection at both ends. The flat (eccentric) taper profile enables a controlled transition between two pipe diameters while maintaining a level invert, which is particularly useful in pumping and metering installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe fitting is finished in blue epoxy coating, indicating suitability for potable water service. Many manufacturers supply these with WRAS-approved or Fusion Bonded Epoxy (FBE) coatings to meet drinking water regulations. Rated to PN16, the fitting handles working pressures up to 16 bar (approximately 232 psi), making it well suited to high-pressure municipal and industrial water networks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDuctile iron (EN-GJS grades) provides high tensile strength, good impact resistance, and a long service life in both buried and above-ground installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eApplications:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePotable water distribution networks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWater treatment plants and pump stations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReservoir and storage tank connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMunicipal water mains and utility networks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndustrial water supply systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFire water mains and hydrant systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRaw water transfer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIrrigation and agricultural water systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSummary:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: Double Flanged Flat (Eccentric) Taper Reducer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: Ductile Iron (EN-GJS grades)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCoating: Blue epoxy \/ Fusion Bonded Epoxy (FBE), suitable for potable water\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePressure Rating: PN16 (16 bar \/ 232 psi)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStandard: EN 545; commonly also ISO 2531 and ISO 7005-2 flange drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnection: Double flanged, bolted both ends\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrimary Industry: Water and wastewater infrastructure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight varies by DN size\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Flocon","offers":[{"title":"100 x 80mm","offer_id":58663169556864,"sku":"999.FLA.TAP.100.080","price":327.6,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"250mm x 200mm","offer_id":58663169589632,"sku":"999.FLA.TAP.250.200","price":910.46,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0524\/4531\/5228\/files\/Double_20Flanged_20Flat_20Taper_20Reducer_2C_20Ductile_20Iron.jpg?v=1786155615","url":"https:\/\/www.flocon.co.uk\/products\/double-flanged-flat-taper-reducer","provider":"Flocon Valves Pipes \u0026 Fittings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
