ABS Metric Reducing Bush PN10 25-315mm

  Data sheet.pdf

The Georg Fischer metric ABS reducing bush is an injection-moulded solvent cement fitting engineered to step down pipe diameters cleanly within industrial piping installations. Manufactured from high-grade acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (RAL 7001 gravel grey), this compact bush delivers exceptional notched impact strength and ductile behaviour across a wide operating temperature envelope ranging from -50 degrees C to +60 degrees C. BigWeld, an authorised Georg Fischer distributor, supplies this component for mission-critical industrial, utility, and secondary refrigeration circuits.

With a nominal pressure rating of 10 bar (PN10) at 20 degrees C, the ABS reducing bush provides high mechanical robustness and surface damage tolerance, outperforming conventional thermoplastic materials in sub-zero applications. ABS is completely halogen-free and chemically inert against water glycol mixtures, chilled water, and common water treatment solutions. Its mirror-smooth inner bore ensures minimal hydraulic friction, preventing pressure drop and scale deposition over decades of continuous duty.

Engineered for reliable solvent cement jointing with Tangit ABS adhesive, the fitting integrates seamlessly into metric ABS piping networks ranging from 25 mm up to 315 mm outer diameter. Installation requires standard preparation with compatible cleaner, creating a homogeneous, leak-tight weld between pipe and fitting. Its compact geometry enables inline diameter transitions directly within standard fittings such as sockets, tees, and valve assemblies without adding axial length to the pipe run.

Typical applications include chilled water distribution, process cooling, secondary refrigeration, municipal and industrial water treatment, marine engineering, and food and beverage processing facilities. BigWeld supplies the complete Georg Fischer ABS metric range across Europe, providing engineers and installers with high-integrity thermoplastic components for environments where metal piping suffers from external condensation corrosion or internal scaling.
