Forged Reducing Inserts Manufacturer, Supplier & Exporter
Valtron Forge & Fittings is a leading manufacturer, supplier, stockist, and exporter of premium quality Forged Reducing Inserts in India. We offer a comprehensive range designed to meet international standards and the demanding requirements of industrial piping systems.
Our reducing inserts (bushings) adapt a larger fitting outlet to a smaller pipe size in one compact forged piece – the space-saving alternative to a reducing coupling.
A Reducing Insert / Bushing has a male connection on the outside and a smaller female connection on the inside, manufactured to ASME B16.11 / BS 3799. It screws or welds into an existing outlet to step the connection down one or more sizes.
Key Features
Steps a larger outlet down to a smaller pipe size in one piece
More compact and economical than a reducing coupling
Socket Weld (SW) and Threaded (SCRD) patterns
Pressure classes 3000#, 6000# and 9000#
Forged construction for superior strength and durability
Available in all grades of stainless, carbon, alloy and nickel alloys
Sizes from 1/8” NB to 4” NB
