Reducers
Reducers have different male and female threads and are used as thread adapters. They are also called reduction sleeves, transition sleeves, transition nuts, reduction bushes, reducing nuts or reduction sockets.

A reducer can also serve as a thread extension – in this case, it is also known as a fitting or thread fitting.
Reducers or fittings are available from TITAN in brass, stainless steel or steel.

Reducers – advantages and applications
Reducers are versatile adapters that have become indispensable in industry. As connectors, they are ideal for joining components with different diameters in a consistent manner in assemblies and pipe systems. They are a simple and efficient thread fitting solution. Thanks to different material grades, the right reducer is available for every environment and field of application. Stainless steel reducers, for example, are corrosion-resistant and suitable for use in industrial plants that use compressed air, fluid power or oil, as well as in heating systems and wastewater engineering.

Reduction sleeves from the fastening technology specialists
The terms “reducer” and “reduction sleeve” are often used interchangeably, although they take different forms. Reduction sleeves do not have a male external thread, but rather two different female threads. TITAN can supply both reduction sleeves and reducers for your threaded fitting in the same top quality.
