For essential connections in many industries, Hex Head Bushings from Fortis Forge are recognized for their superior strength, accurate threading, and excellent resistance to corrosion and high pressure. These forged fittings deliver reliable sealing and secure size transitions between pipes or fittings of different diameters. Manufactured in compliance with ASTM A105, ASME B16.11, and DIN standards, our bushings offer dependable performance across a variety of demanding industrial environments.
Crafted from carbon steel or mild steel, the bushings exhibit high mechanical strength and are engineered to withstand wear, oxidation, and chemical exposure. Their precision-forged construction ensures a tight fit and leak-proof connection, making them ideal for high-pressure systems in industries such as oil & gas, power generation, chemical processing, and marine. Suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, Fortis Forge hex head bushings offer long-term durability, efficiency, and compatibility with BSP/NPT threaded connections.
A Hex Head Bushing is a forged threaded fitting used to connect pipes of different sizes. It features external male threads and internal female threads, allowing for a secure reduction in pipe size within a piping system. The hexagonal head offers easy wrench grip for installation and removal.
Threaded Hex Head Bushing:
Engineered with precision-cut threads for leak-proof, reliable connections. Ideal for applications where space constraints or system layout require pipe size reduction without compromising strength.
These bushings play a critical role in systems that need size transitions while ensuring sealed and robust connections under varying pressure conditions.
At Fortis Forge, our Hex Head Bushings are manufactured using:
