EPDM Tri-Clover Seals

EPDM Tri-Clover Seals

EPDM Tri-Clover Seals are vital components in hygienic fittings, known for their ability to create smooth, non-contaminating internal pipework joints. These seals are integral to unions, comprising two ferrules compressed together using a clamp, with a gasket ensuring a tight seal between them.

Efficient and Secure Sealing

Manufactured from EPDM (Ethylene Propylene diene Monomer Rubber is a type of synthetic rubber that is used in many applications, from roofing membranes to door and gasket seals.), these seals offer exceptional performance and durability. They are easy to remove by hand using a single hinge clamp wing nut, facilitating quick maintenance and inspection of equipment. EPDM rubber’s non-polar elastomeric properties provide good performance in polar fluids such as alcohols, hydrogen sulphide (H2S), super-critical carbon dioxide, water, steam, and ketones. However, they may perform poorly in non-polar fluids such as hydrocarbon oils, lubricants, and greases.

Resilient Material with Wide Temperature Range

EPDM rubber is resistant to heat, cold, ozone, and UV rays, making it suitable for a wide range of temperatures. The temperature rating for EPDM “E” gasket material typically ranges from -51°C to 148°C (-60°F to 300°F), ensuring reliable performance in both hot and cold environments.

Versatile Applications

EPDM Tri-Clover Seals find extensive use in various industries due to their resilience and reliability. Their ability to withstand harsh environments and resist chemicals makes them indispensable in applications such as food and pharmaceutical processing, HVAC systems, plumbing, and automotive.

With their smooth and hygienic design, EPDM Tri-Clover Seals meet stringent hygiene standards, particularly crucial in industries where cleanliness is paramount. Their efficient sealing capabilities ensure that systems operate smoothly and without contamination, contributing to overall operational efficiency and safety.
