Applications
The sanitary Tri-Clamp female thread adapter can be used wherever a clamp-style sanitary pipeline needs to connect to a threaded component.
Typical applications include:
- Connecting sanitary pipes to threaded valves
- Connecting piping to pressure gauges and instruments
- Tank outlets and process equipment connections
- Pump inlets and outlets
- Food and beverage processing systems
- Dairy processing equipment
- Brewing and fermentation systems
- Pharmaceutical and hygienic process systems
- Cosmetic and personal-care processing equipment
Why Use a Tri-Clamp Female Thread Adapter?
Tri-Clamp connections are widely used in sanitary piping because they allow components to be assembled, disassembled, and cleaned efficiently.
This adapter provides a convenient transition between a sanitary clamp connection and a female-threaded component, making it easier to integrate different types of equipment within the same process system.
The 304 stainless steel construction provides good corrosion resistance and durability for general sanitary processing applications. For applications requiring higher corrosion resistance, 316L stainless steel is available on request.

FAQ
What thread standard is available?
Depending on the product configuration, female threads can be supplied in NPT, BSP, G, or other specified thread standards. Please confirm the required thread type when ordering.
Is 316L stainless steel available?
Yes. 316L stainless steel is available for applications requiring higher corrosion resistance or specific sanitary processing requirements.
What sizes are available?
Standard sizes range from DN15 to DN100, approximately 1/2″ to 4″. Other sizes may be available on request.
Does the adapter include a clamp and gasket?
The adapter is normally supplied as the fitting itself. Tri-Clamps and sanitary gaskets can be supplied separately or as a matching set upon request.
Can this adapter connect to a sanitary valve or instrument?
Yes. The adapter is designed to connect a Tri-Clamp sanitary piping system to a component with a compatible female-threaded connection, such as certain valves, gauges, instruments, or threaded fittings.
What is the difference between NPT and BSP threads?
NPT is a commonly used U.S. pipe thread standard, while BSP thread standards are widely used in Europe and many other international markets. The thread type must match the mating component to ensure proper connection.
