What is a tri clover fitting?
Stainless Steel Sanitary Fittings Tri clamps are also known as tri-clover fittings or sanitary fittings. They are designed to create a leak-proof seal between two pipes or hoses. Tri clamps are available in a variety of sizes and are made from stainless steel or other corrosion resistant materials.
What is ferrule clamp?
Tri-Clamp Ferrules are a flanged fitting used to connect two separate pieces of sanitary tubing. This connection is completed with the use of a clamp and gasket to create a water-tight seal.
How are sanitary fittings measured?
Lay your piece down on a sheet of paper and trace a circle around the outside of the flange end. Measure the diameter of the traced circle to determine the Outside Diameter (OD) of the flange end. Note: 1″ & 1 1/2″ Sanitary Fittings have the same flange OD. To determine your size, also note the Inside Diameter (ID)
What is a tank ferrule?
Tank weld ferrules are a popular choice when adding additional tank ferrules due to their thicker walls. The robust thickness can take a higher load once welded in place, and the welding process is much less likely to leave weld lines, pits, or require additional finish work.
How do you measure a tri clover gasket?
Lay your gasket down on a sheet of paper and trace a circle around the outside. Measure the diameter of the traced circle to determine your tri-clamp gasket’s Outside Diameter (OD)
How long is a ferrule?
Our most popular and versatile ferrule. On average this ferrule is just over 1″ in length (longer for larger tube diameters). The tri-clamp long ferrule is available in both 304 and 316 stainless steel and is manufactured in accordance with 3A Standards.
What is a weld ferrule?
Ferrules generally are protective rings used to shield the stud during welding. They’re used in a wide range of applications, from fibre optics to stud welding, to help make processes more effective.
What is a long weld ferrule?
Long weld tri-clamp ferrules connect sanitary process lines to permanent welded end. Long weld clamp ferrules allow extra room for welding capabilities when assembling process lines. Stainless steel design is offered in both 304 and 316L alloy options.
What is a ceramic ferrule?
Ceramic ferrules, often called arc shields, are often used in the drawn-arc stud welding process. They are, typically, a round shape that fit around the base of the weld stud. There are different ferrules for each diameter of weld stud. Often the ferrule configuration varies by application.
