Reducing Ferrules - Standard

standard 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.

Standard reducing ferrules can be used where mixing is not a problem, such as with liquid or gas delivery. A 1/16" to 1/32" ferrule of this style is simply a 1/16" ferrule with a 1/32" hole.
