One-set assembly: 304 stainless steel weld ferrule flange with a standard Tri Clamp connection and one gasket. Designed for sanitary piping systems; bore 154 mm, outer diameter 168 mm. Gasket material options: PTFE or Silicone. Key benefits Durable, corrosion-resistant 304 stainless steel construction that withstands sanitary processing and reduces replacement frequency. Ready-to-install assembly (weld ferrule, Tri Clamp, gasket) saves time and eliminates the need to source separate parts. Gasketed seal designed for cleanability and compatibility with CIP procedures, reducing contamination risk and downtime. Accurate sizing (bore 154 mm / OD 168 mm) ensures reliable mating with standard sanitary components and minimizes leak points. Key attributes Function: Weld the ferrule flange to a pipe end to connect that pipe to Tri Clamp fittings using a gasketed seal. Compatibility: Built to fit standard Tri Clamp systems and common sanitary piping layouts. Size: Bore 154 mm; outer diameter 168 mm — precise dimensions for standard sanitary connections. Material: 304 stainless steel for strength, corrosion resistance, and easy cleaning. Performance: Gasket options of PTFE or Silicone for broad chemical compatibility and dependable sealing performance. (Gasket material may vary by unit.) Includes 1 weld ferrule flange 1 Tri Clamp 1 gasket (PTFE or Silicone) Typical applications / use scenarios Dairy processing: Weld the ferrule to process piping to connect into Tri Clamp sanitary lines for milk or cream transfer; supports frequent cleaning and prevents cross-contamination. Beverage production with CIP: Integrate the ferrule into clean-in-place loops to join piping segments securely while maintaining gasketed, cleanable seals. Pharmaceutical or biotech piping: Add flange connections to stainless steel lines in cleanroom or controlled environments using standard Tri Clamp fittings for validated, sanitary connections. Installation and maintenance notes Weld the ferrule to the pipe per your facility welding procedures, then assemble with the Tri Clamp and selected gasket to establish a gasketed seal. Choose PTFE or Silicone gasket based on required chemical compatibility and process conditions. Inspect gaskets regularly and clean per CIP procedures to maintain seal integrity. Notes Gasket material is PTFE or Silicone; exact material may vary by unit. Suitable for applications requiring sanitary, cleanable connections in stainless steel piping systems.
