01 — Overview

The Brass Double Ferrule Reducer connects a smaller tubing line into an existing larger compression fitting port. Unlike reducing unions, which connect two tubing ends together, the Reducer features a solid, pre-machined tube stub on one end that inserts directly into an existing double ferrule body, while the other end provides a smaller compression port.

This compact, one-piece design eliminates multiple threaded joints, significantly reduces dead-leg volume, and saves valuable panel space in congested pneumatic and instrumentation enclosures. Engineered from ASTM B16 brass bar stock, it maintains system pressure ratings up to 5,000 PSI.

02 — Product Detail

Brass Double Ferrule Reducer Supplier

Each reducer is machined from solid extruded brass bar stock, featuring a precision-ground tube stub that replicates annealed tubing geometry for perfect ferrule gripping.

The smaller compression port incorporates Pioneer standard twin-ferrule swaging components, providing leak-proof containment across all standard industrial gases and liquids.

Features & Technical Specifications:

  • Integrated Precision Tube Stub: Directly inserts into existing fitting ports, eliminating intermediate nipples or adapters.
  • Space-Saving Compact Profile: Reduces connection footprint by up to 50% compared to conventional reducing unions.
  • Minimal Dead Volume: Smooth internal taper transitions prevent fluid stagnation and sample entrapment.
  • Pressure Containment to 5,000 PSI: Maintains full system pressure ratings across all reduction size increments.
  • Full Material Traceability: Supplied with EN 10204 Type 3.1 inspection documentation and batch certification.

Frequently Asked Questions – Brass Double Ferrule Reducer

Expert engineering insights and technical guidance regarding swaging mechanics, pressure thresholds, tubing compatibility, and installation protocols for Brass Double Ferrule Reducer.

A Reducer has a machined tube stub on one end (to insert into an existing fitting port) and a compression tube port on the other. A Reducing Union has compression tube ports on both ends to connect two bare tubes of different diameters.

Insert the tube stub fully into the existing fitting until it bottoms against the shoulder, hand-tighten the existing nut, and tighten 1-1/4 turns with a wrench (or 3/4 turn for 1/8″ and 3/16″).

Yes. Once the existing fitting ferrules have swaged onto the reducer tube stub, it can be repeatedly disassembled and remade just like standard tubing.

Metric Series MR covers 6mm to 25mm stub-to-tube reductions, and Fractional Series IR covers 1/8″ to 1″ combinations (e.g., 1/2″ stub × 1/4″ tube).

Rated up to 5,000 PSI (345 Bar) for sizes up to 1/4″, governed by the smaller tube connection size and wall thickness per ASME B31.3.

Extruded brass bar stock conforming to ASTM B16 Alloy C36000 / CW614N.

Yes. The smooth tapered internal transition eliminates cavities and dead volume, making it ideal for analytical sampling and high-purity gases.

Yes, certified helium leak tight (< 1 × 10⁻⁹ mbar·l/s) down to -750 mmHg vacuum.

Yes, the precision-machined tube stub complies with international tube OD tolerances and fits all standard double-ferrule ports.
