Sanitary fittings are hygienic pipe components designed for clean and secure connections in sanitary processing systems.
They are widely used in food, beverage, dairy, pharmaceutical, and biotechnology applications.
Sanitary fittings, also known as hygienic fittings, are stainless steel pipe components used to connect, extend, or change the flow direction in sanitary processing systems.
Unlike standard industrial fittings, sanitary fittings feature smooth internal surfaces, precise machining, and hygienic design to minimize product residue and reduce the risk of contamination.
They are typically manufactured from SS316L stainless steel and are suitable for CIP (Clean-in-Place) and SIP (Sterilize-in-Place) processes, making them widely used in food, beverage, dairy, pharmaceutical, and biotechnology industries.

Sanitary fittings are available with different connection types to meet specific hygienic, cleaning, and installation requirements in sanitary processing systems.
Tri-clamp (also known as tri-clover) connections are the most commonly used sanitary fitting connections. They allow quick assembly and disassembly without special tools, making them ideal for systems requiring frequent cleaning or maintenance.
Butt weld connections provide a permanent, leak-free joint by welding fittings directly to pipes. This connection type offers the highest level of hygiene with no crevices, making it suitable for critical sanitary applications.
Sanitary union connections allow pipelines to be easily disconnected while maintaining a hygienic seal. They are often used where components need to be removed or replaced regularly.
Threaded sanitary fittings are designed for specific low-pressure hygienic applications. They are typically used in auxiliary lines or non-product contact areas.
All sanitary fittings are manufactured in accordance with internationally recognized hygienic and quality standards to ensure product safety, cleanability, and regulatory compliance.
3A Sanitary Standards are widely recognized in food, beverage, wine, and dairy industries, focusing on hygienic equipment design and cleanability.
FDA compliance ensures that materials used in sanitary fittings are safe for direct contact with food, beverage, and pharmaceutical products.
CE and ISO 9001 certifications demonstrate compliance with European regulations and recognized quality management systems.
Selecting the right sanitary fittings depends on hygienic requirements, installation method, applicable standards, and material compatibility with the process media.
Tri-Clamp Fittings are ideal for systems requiring frequent disassembly and cleaning. They are widely used in food, beverage, and dairy processing.
Butt Weld Fittings provide permanent, crevice-free connections, making them suitable for high-purity and pharmaceutical applications.
Sanitary Union Fittings allow easy pipeline disconnection while maintaining hygienic sealing, commonly used in modular processing systems.
DIN, SMS, IDF standards are commonly used in European food and beverage processing systems.
3A and ASME BPE standards are preferred for applications with strict hygienic and cleanability requirements, such as dairy and pharmaceutical processing.
SS304 sanitary fittings are suitable for general food and beverage applications with mild processing conditions.
SS316L sanitary fittings offer superior corrosion resistance and are recommended for dairy, pharmaceutical, and biotechnology applications.
A surface finish of Ra ≤ 0.8 μm is suitable for most sanitary processing systems and standard CIP cleaning.
For high-purity or pharmaceutical applications, Ra ≤ 0.4 μm is recommended to further reduce contamination risk and improve cleanability.
