Reducing Ferrules - Internal

internal reducing ferrule

Reducing ferrules provide an inexpensive way to connect small temporary transfer lines to valves or fittings designed for larger tubing. For long term use, we recommend our reducing unions, internal reducers (IZRs), or external reducers (EZRs), as appropriate.

Internal ZDV (zero dead volume) reducing ferrules are designed for use with all standard Valco internal style fittings - that is, those with a male nut and female fitting detail. The ferrule features an integral pilot which fills the pilot cavity (the space between the end of the ferrule and the bottom of the detail), yielding a zero dead volume fitting.
