One of the biggest Stainless steel hexagon bushing manufacturer in India

Hex bushing

A hex bushing is a pipe fitting that is used to connect two pipes of different diameters. It has male threads on one end and female threads on the other, allowing it to screw into a larger female-threaded pipe or fitting while also providing a smaller male-threaded connection for the smaller pipe. The term “hex bushing” refers to the fitting’s hexagonal form, which provides a handy surface for tightening with a wrench.

The hex bushing permits the connecting of the smaller pipe to the bigger pipe or fitting by lowering the diameter of one end and giving male threads on the other. Male x female hex bushings have male threads on one end and female threads on the other, allowing for greater pipe connection versatility.

Forged steel hex bushings are available in various sizes

Their ability to form secure connections, combined with thread compatibility and durability, makes them essential components in a wide range of plumbing and industrial applications. By selecting the proper hex bushing and implementing it into the fluid system design, it is possible to accomplish efficient and dependable pipe size transitions, which contribute to overall system performance.
