Sanitary Gaskets
Rubber Fab has the largest selection of standard gaskets and specialty gaskets
Sealing your production line correctly is critical. Consider the full application: the media running through the system, operating temperatures, and any chemicals it may encounter. With so many variables, one size never fits all. That’s why Rubber Fab offers an extensive range of sanitary gaskets. Our hygienic seals are trusted across Biotech, Pharmaceutical, Dairy, Food & Beverage, Brewery and Data Center Cooling industries to secure clamp connections in sanitary pipelines. Whether you need standard tri clamp gaskets for everyday duty or EPDM sanitary gaskets and FKM sanitary gaskets for demanding environments, we provide options that fit your process.
Renowned for innovation, Rubber Fab’s specialty gasket line stands out. These specialty gaskets include patented designs and first-to-market solutions we’re proud to provide. Available in multiple elastomers and fluoroelastomers—such as EPDM sanitary gaskets for hot water and steam service and FKM sanitary gaskets for aggressive chemicals—they’re engineered to meet a wide spectrum of application demands. Can’t find the exact part you need? Rubber Fab also excels at producing custom, customer-specified components.
Looking for application ideas? Explore Rubber Fab Case Studies for real-world problem-solving examples—great for learning and for supporting your sales efforts. You’ll find examples of sanitary gaskets improving performance in CIP/SIP cycles, tri clamp gaskets enhancing uptime, and EPDM sanitary gaskets and FKM sanitary gaskets delivering reliable sealing in challenging thermal and chemical conditions.
Styles, materials, and certifications for industry use
Rubber Fab offers a wide variety of sanitary gaskets styles to meet different process needs:
- Standard tri clamp gaskets for common sanitary clamp connections in 1/2″ to 12″ sizes, with options including EPDM sanitary gaskets, FKM sanitary gaskets, Silicone, PTFE, PTFE envelope gaskets, and blended materials.
- Screen gaskets, orifice plate gaskets, and perforated plate sanitary gaskets designed to strain particulates, throttle flow, or protect downstream equipment while maintaining cleanability, including orifice plate gaskets for precise flow control.
- Specialty sanitary gaskets such as Detectomer®, Tuf-Flex®, Tuf-Steel® and Smart Gasket®.
Certifications and compliance options include FDA-compliant materials, USP Class VI and 3-A Sanitary Standards for hygienic applications, ASME-BPE dimensional compatibility for bioprocessing, EU 1935/2004, and ADI-free compounds for sensitive processes. Many tri clamp gaskets are available with lot traceability and documentation for validation. These certifications help ensure sanitary gaskets meet requirements across food, beverage, biotech, and pharmaceutical facilities and confirm suitability for high purity and hygienic applications.
Specialty and custom solutions for unique requirements
When an off-the-shelf seal won’t solve the problem, Rubber Fab will work with you to try and tailor specialty and custom sanitary gaskets to your exact needs. We also provide vented, slotted, orifice, and perforated tri clamp gaskets to dial in flow rate, backpressure, or mixing; orifice plate gaskets are available in custom bore sizes to fine-tune performance. Our team can match media exposure, temperature range, and cleaning chemistry to the ideal material—such as EPDM sanitary gaskets for steam and alkaline CIP or FKM sanitary gaskets for solvents and high-temperature SIP—while maintaining sanitary design and cleanability.
Where to find gaskets by industry
- Food & Beverage: Explore our standard and specialty tri clamp gaskets, including metal-detectable sanitary gaskets and screen gaskets for quality control. FDA- and 3-A-compliant EPDM sanitary gaskets and FKM sanitary gaskets are readily available for brewing, dairy, and beverage lines.
- Biotech & Pharmaceutical: Find high-purity sanitary gaskets with USP Class VI, ASME-BPE compatibility, and full lot traceability. Our high-purity portfolio includes PTFE envelope gaskets, platinum-cured silicone, EPDM sanitary gaskets and FKM sanitary gaskets for CIP/SIP cycles.
- High-Purity: Source low extractables, cleanroom-ready sanitary gaskets for ultra-clean service. We supply high-purity tri clamp gaskets to support critical applications.
If you’re asking, “Where can I find a reliable source for high-purity gaskets?” Rubber Fab offers dedicated high-purity sanitary gaskets and tri clamp gaskets with the documentation your QA team needs. Likewise, “Where can I find gaskets for the pharmaceutical industry?” and “Where can I find high-purity gaskets for pharmaceutical applications?”—you can source them here, backed by USP Class VI, FDA compliance, 3-A Sanitary Standards, and ASME-BPE dimensional compatibility. These same certifications explain what standards sanitary gaskets comply with to ensure suitability for high purity and hygienic applications.
Product families
- Standard Gaskets: General-purpose tri clamp gaskets in a range of compounds, including EPDM sanitary gaskets for steam exposure and FKM sanitary gaskets for chemical resistance.
