Tri-Clamp Hose Tail Connectors

Tri-Clamp Hose Tail Connectors

The phrase ‘Tri-Clamp’ was originally used to describe clamps comprised of three segments, but now the name is more generally used to refer to all types of hygienic connections and fittings. Tri-Clamp fittings are connections for pieces of pipe, which facilitate easy disassembly and cleaning. These should not be confused with valves, which make up part of our range; valves are used to control the flow of product.

Tri-Clamp Hose Tail Connectors are manufactured from 316L pharmaceutical grade stainless steel, they allow for clamp flange to be connected to a flexible hose

Our range includes fittings in 304 and 316L grade stainless steel, with outside pipe diameters from ½ inch through to 4 inches.

Types of Tri-Clamp Fittings

Our Tri-Clamp fittings comprise a series of pipes and unisex joints, which are available welded or as separate elements. A gasket is sandwiched between joints and the union is completed with a leak-tight seal.

Here are descriptions of some of the elements, to give you a basic understanding:

Ferrule Ends – BS 4825 Pt.3

Ferrules are used to connect Tri-Clamp fitting ends with a permanent welded end in sanitary process lines. We have outside pipe diameters ranging from 0.5” to 4” in stock.

Ferrule End Gasket Seals

Manufactured from Silicone, PTFE, Viton or EPDM, PHP Tri-Clamp Ferrule Gaskets are designed to form a seal between Ferrule Ends. The raised ridge each side of the gasket seal fills the concave ridge of the Ferrule Ends.

Clamps

Tri-Clamp fitting clamps come in two main types: a 2-segment (single hinge) and a 3-segment (double hinge). PHP only offer the 3-segment style clamps, which are generally considered to be more ‘heavy duty’. The main benefit of the 3-segment type is they are easier to install in tight spaces. One size of clamp will fit all ferrule types of that size.

Ball Valves

Manufactured from 316L grade stainless steel, with a PTFE seal/stem seal, PHP Tri-clamp Ball Valves are 100% air tested under water at 100 psi in open and closed positions.

Butterfly Valves

Manufactured from 316L grade stainless steel, PHP Tri-clamp Plain Butterfly Valve includes a lockable open or close handle and four bolts to dismantle for easy cleaning.
