Brass Reducing Bush

Key Points

• Design and Configuration:Reducing bushes have two female-threaded ends with different diameters. The larger end is threaded to match the larger pipe’s diameter, while the smaller end is threaded to match the smaller pipe’s diameter. This design allows for the pipes to be connected end-to-end, providing a smooth transition between the different diameters.


• Size and Variations:Reducing bushes come in various size combinations to accommodate different pipe diameter transitions. For example, a 3/4″ x 1/2″ reducing bush would have a 3/4″ female thread on one end and a 1/2″ female thread on the other.


• Material Composition:Reducing bushes are made from a variety of materials, including Bronze, Brass, Stainless Steel, plastic, and other alloys. The material choice depends on factors such as the fluid being transported, compatibility with other materials, and environmental conditions.


• Applications:Reducing bushes are used in various applications, including plumbing systems, industrial processes, and other fluid transportation systems where pipes with different diameters need to be connected.


• Pressure and Temperature Ratings:The pressure and temperature ratings of reducing bushes depend on the material, design, and size of the fitting. Ensure that the chosen reducing bushes are suitable for the intended working conditions.
