Stainless Steel Tri-Clamps with Optional Gaskets

3-A Sanitary Standards Certified

Stainless Steel Tri-Clamps with Optional Gaskets

Tri-clamps engineered for secure, sanitary connections in hygienic processing environments. Made from durable 304 stainless steel, these tri-clamps are available with or without gaskets (EPDM Black or FKM Green options) and offer excellent corrosion resistance. Designed for easy cleaning and maintenance, they are ideal for food, pharmaceutical, and chemical processing applications.

About Stainless Steel Tri-Clamps

Our stainless steel tri-clamps provide secure, sanitary connections for food processing, pharmaceutical manufacturing, dairy production, brewing, and chemical processing applications. These high-quality 304 stainless steel components are 3-A Sanitary Standards certified and available with optional EPDM or FKM gaskets to suit various processing requirements.

Tri-Clamp Features

Corrosion-resistant sanitary fittings for hygienic processing. Easy to clean and maintain with excellent durability. Compatible with industry-standard sanitary pipes and fittings. Our tri-clamps are used throughout the UK in food and beverage production, pharmaceutical manufacturing, chemical processing, and other industrial applications requiring hygienic connections.

About FKM Gaskets

Our green FKM fluoroelastomer gaskets offer performance characteristics comparable to Viton® branded products. FKM provides excellent resistance to oils, fuels, acids, and chemicals with exceptional high-temperature performance (up to 200°C). While Viton® is a specific brand of fluoroelastomer manufactured by The Chemours Company (formerly DuPont), our FKM gaskets deliver similar chemical resistance, temperature tolerance, and durability at competitive prices. Industries ranging from food processing to pharmaceutical manufacturing trust FKM gaskets for their reliability in demanding environments where chemical compatibility is essential.

FKM vs Viton® Gaskets

FKM (Fluoroelastomer) is the generic material category that includes branded products like Viton®. When selecting gaskets for tri-clamps, our FKM gaskets provide comparable performance to Viton® branded alternatives, offering excellent chemical resistance, temperature tolerance, and durability. Both FKM and Viton® resist degradation from acids, oils, and many solvents, making them ideal for demanding processing environments.
