reduzindo diâmetro


Explanation:
In heating and cooling systems you will generally start with a large trunk line and then from the trunk line, smaller lines will branch off towards various locations desired. At certain points it is necessary to reduce the diameter of the tube.. this is called "Channel down" or "Necking Down".
