Benefits of our DI Pipe Fittings
The production process of ductile iron pipe fittings (ductile iron fittings / DI fittings) depends on the metal properties, such as pouring temperature, nucleation potential and chemical composition.
Truform has perfected the process of obtaining the best quality ductile iron fittings (ductile iron fittings / fittings).
In addition, Truform mastered the fluid processing of ductile iron pipe fittings (ductile iron fittings / DI fittings), including spheroidization of graphite processing, mould and temperature coating, thermal and physical properties, and casting design.
As direct beneficiary to this, we can efficiently and perfectly meet customer requirements and supply with ductile iron pipe fittings (ductile iron fittings / DI fittings).
In order to meet our clients, we are able to change the shape and form of ductile iron fittings / DI fittings in accordance with their requirements. With a European base in London, we are your true and trusted partner in the production of Indian ductile iron fittings.
The entire range of ductile iron fittings from Truform comes with three different choices of external coatings finished with epoxy paint (red, blue or black), and of the preferred class and standards. Affordable price and the best quality of services and products that we offer in relation to ductile iron pipe fittings are bringing us a growing number of clients.

Notes:
- The standard flange rating used in the UK is PN 16. PN 10, 25 and 40 are generally available to order. Pressure ratings of PN 10 and PN 40 flanges are given in BS EN 545.
- PN 10 is a non-preferred flange pressure rating for routine Water Industry applications.
- PFA: allowable operating pressure (i.e. maximum internal pressure, exclusive of surges that a component can stand in permanent service).
- PMA: allowable maximum operating pressure (i.e. maximum internal pressure, inclusive of surge, that a component can safely withstand in service).
- PEA: allowable test pressure (i.e. maximum hydrostatic pressure which can be applied on-site to a component in a newly-installed pipeline).
- Operation at these pressures may be limited by the lower pressure capability of other pipeline components (e.g. flanged pipework or fittings, socket tees, some designs of flexible joints). Refer to manufacturers’ technical department.
- Site hydrostatic testing at the high PEA values given (especially for DN 40 to 150) may be limited by the type and design of pipeline anchorage system and/or design of flexible joints used.
Examples of ductile iron pipe fittings are presented below. Aesthetic appearance of the products are as required by the customer with our main focus being compliance of the specification standard.
