Tri-Clamp gaskets, also known as Tri Clover gaskets, are sealing components used in sanitary process installations. They are mainly used in the food, pharmaceutical and chemical industries where hygienic seals are crucial. These gaskets are specifically designed for use with Tri Clamp fittings, which consist of pipes and fittings with a triangular clamp connection. Tri Clamp gaskets create a seal between two Tri Clamp fittings, preventing leakage of liquids or gases while ensuring a hygienic environment. Seal Supply supplies a wide range of high-quality Tri Clamp gaskets in Standard, Mini and Flanged versions.
How do Tri-Clamp gaskets work?
How do Tri-Clamp gaskets work? Tri-Clamp gaskets are placed between two flanged fittings and are compressed when the clamp is tightened. This provides a seal between pipes or fittings without the need for screws or bolts. The seal is achieved by the compression of the gasket between the two fittings, creating a leak-free connection. These gaskets are often made of materials such as FKM, Silicone, EPDM (ethylene-propylene-diene monomer) or PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene), which are resistant to high temperatures, chemical corrosion and hygiene requirements. The choice of material depends on the specific application and the requirements for sterility and chemical resistance.
Applications
Tri Clamp gaskets are widely used in sanitary process installations, such as in the food industry for dairy products, beverages, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics. They are used in pipes, tanks, pumps and other components where hygienic and leak-free connections are crucial to meet stringent food safety and product quality standards. Easy installation, reliable sealing and hygienic properties make these gaskets essential in these industries.
