I have the mesh on the left, and want to extrude the selected faces inwards by the exact same distance to obtain the result on the right:

I have tried "Extrude Faces Along Normals", which gives a strange tapered extrude:

and have also tried "Extrude Individual Faces", which gives an unequal extrude:

Is there a tool which extrudes them equally without doing them individually?

Apply the scale in Object mode (CtrlA), switch to Edit mode and Use Extrude Faces Along Normals but in the Operator box, enable the Offset Even option:
