Sanitary Ferrule Clamp
• Constructed of Non-Metallic
fiberglass
reinforced nylon.
• Accepts sanitary ferrules
according to
BS 4825, ISO 2852
and Tri-Clover® Standards.
• Will not cause distortion in non-
metallic
ferrules, as will stainless steel clamps
during high
operating temperatures and
sterilization. Less weight than
stainless
steel clamps.
• Use where reduction of weight
and
reduced thermal conductivity
transfer is
of importance.
• Use on non-metallic to non-
metallic, nonmetallic
to metallic
and metallic to metallic
sanitary
mechanical joints.
