About
Tri Clover Unions or otherwise known as a Tri Clamp Union, are a sanitary union typically used in food and beverage applications where hygienic lines are needed.
Tri clover unions are popular due to ease of use and the ability to quickly connect or disconnect a process line.
A Tri Clover Union consists of four parts; the ferrules, the seal and the clamp. The two ferrules have a grooved face to seat the seal in between, which are then held together by a clamp.
The seal fills the crevice between the ferrules creating a hygienic joint so product or bacteria can’t build up and create any issues.
The Metal Company supplies butt-welded Tri Clover Ferrules And Tri Clover Expansion Ferrules. Butt weld ferrules are typically purge welded for hygienic applications, while Tri Clover Expansion Ferrules slip over the tube and require just one weld to create a hygienic joint. The Metal Company also has a variety of adapters and fittings pre welded with Tri Clovers available to make your install easier. We also have valves & sight glasses available with Tri Clover ends.
There are two types of clamps to complete the union, our standard tri clover clamp and our heavy-duty clamp. The standard clamp is held together by a single pin and a twist-to-tighten handle. The heavy-duty tri-clover clamp allows a bolt secured on both sides of the clamp to reduce the ease of releasing the ferrules.
Tri Clover ferrules are available as short, medium or long ferrules. This relates to the length of the buttweld piece, meaning you can use a short for tight spaces and a long where you would like a bit more room for welding.

How To Measure Tri Clover Ferrules | Technical Tuesday
Tri Clovers are measured according to the tube size they fit, It is often mistaken that the outside diameter of the flange end of the ferrule is interpreted as the size of the tri clover, but that is not the case. Watch Huntley discuss.
Tri Clover Expansion Ferrules Explained | Technical Tuesday
An expansion ferrule can be identified by the ridges on the inside of the ferrule. It also slips over the dairy tube rather than butt welding to it like a normal ferrule. Watch Huntley explain more in the video above.

The standard Tri Clover ferrule is designed to be butt welded to outside diameter stainless tubes. We have these in short, medium and long options. A butt weld ferrule can be identified by the smooth internal finish. We stock these in sizes ½” to 12”. The expansion ferrule can be identified by the ridges on the inside of the ferrule. They are designed to slip over the tube rather than butt welding. They are typically used where purge welding is not required, or when space in the pipeline is limited. Expansion ferrules were originally designed to be attached to the tube using a swaging or expansion machine that would eliminate the need for welding. This method is typically not used in New Zealand but the expansion ferrule is now utilised as a slip on weld ferrule.

Concentric reducers derive their name from their cone-like shape. They have both ends on the same axis, resulting in the smaller section being in the direct centre of the larger section when viewed head-on. This style of reducer is the most common. On the other hand, eccentric reducers reduce the pipe to one side. They have a straight side and a cone-shaped side, causing the centerline to be offset. When viewed head-on, the smaller section is situated against one side of the larger section. These are particularly helpful on horizontal lines as they aid in proper drainage. The total length of our reducers are equal to the largest diameter. We stock butt weld concentric and eccentric reducers to suit tube, Sch10 pipe and Sch40 pipe. We also have some tube reducers available pre-welded with Tri Clover or RJT Fittings on the ends. Concentric and eccentric reducers are used to join two different sizes of pipe or tube.

It is often mistaken that the outside diameter of the flange end of the ferrule is interpreted as the size of the tri clover, but that is not the case. Tri Clover unions consist of two ferrules with a grooved face to seat a seal in between. This is held together by a 1-piece heavy duty clamp with a single pin and a twist-to-tighten handle. The clamped union provides a smooth, non-contaminating internal tube joint for manufacturing hygienic product. The unit can also be known as a Tri Clamp union. A standard Tri Clover Ferrule butt-welds to imperial tube sizes. Ferrules are also available as Tri Clover Expansion Ferrule which features a ridged inside that works as a slip-on connection to suit imperial tube sizes. Both ferrule types are available as a standard Long Ferrule or as a Short Ferrule. The Short Ferrule has been developed to suit pumps and valves or process lines which are operating in confined areas. The black EPDM Tri Clover Seals are used for standard applications and grey Viton Tri Clover Seals are used for high temperature and chemical resistance purposes. Typical applications include pharmaceutical machinery and food & beverage plants in almost any industry globally. The New Zealand market uses Tri Clover unions, particularly for dairy sheds, due to the easy installation and the ability for a quick and clean disconnect of a process line.

The Liquid Level Gauge is made up of two parts, known as the ‘Upper’ and ‘Lower’ fitting. These are used with 19.05mm polycarbonate or borosilicate glass tube. This tube is friction fitted between the two fittings into a silicone seal at the outlets. This allows fluid to flow up to a maximum temperature of 180°C. Each unit has a stainless steel retaining nut. The nut acts as handwheel to gauge the flow through the tube and a 25.4-38.1m Tri Clover connection to let the liquid enter and exit. As the name suggests, liquid levels of tanks or barrels can be gauged by positioning the Upper Gauge at the top of the tank and the Lower Gauge near the bottom. This allows an external view of the liquid level within. The individual gauges are able to withstand a maximum pressure of 145PSI (10Bar); however, this may be less depending on the glass tube handling pressure.

Technical
The standard Tri Clover ferrule is designed to be butt welded to outside diameter stainless tubes. We have these in short, medium and long options. A butt weld ferrule can be identified by the smooth internal finish. We stock these in sizes ½” to 12”. The expansion ferrule can be identified by the ridges on the inside of the ferrule. They are designed to slip over the tube rather than butt welding. They are typically used where purge welding is not required, or when space in the pipeline is limited. Expansion ferrules were originally designed to be attached to the tube using a swaging or expansion machine that would eliminate the need for welding. This method is typically not used in New Zealand but the expansion ferrule is now utilised as a slip on weld ferrule.

This method is typically not used in New Zealand but the expansion ferrule is now utilised as a slip on weld ferrule. We stock expansion ferrules from 1” through to 4” in short and long options Concentric and eccentric reducers are used to join two different sizes of pipe or tube. Concentric reducers derive their name from their cone-like shape. They have both ends on the same axis, resulting in the smaller section being in the direct centre of the larger section when viewed head-on. This style of reducer is the most common. On the other hand, eccentric reducers reduce the pipe to one side. They have a straight side and a cone-shaped side, causing the centerline to be offset. When viewed head-on, the smaller section is situated against one side of the larger section. These are particularly helpful on horizontal lines as they aid in proper drainage. The total length of our reducers are equal to the largest diameter. We stock butt weld concentric and eccentric reducers to suit tube, Sch10 pipe and Sch40 pipe. We also have some tube reducers available pre-welded with Tri Clover or RJT Fittings on the ends. Concentric and eccentric reducers are used to join two different sizes of pipe or tube.

We also have some tube reducers available pre-welded with Tri Clover or RJT Fittings on the ends. Cellar & Brew fittings include tube bends, tees, valves and reducers which come with unions welded already on each end of them. This not only saves you time and money but is more hygienic as the weld is purge welded and then polished. All our Cellar and Brew fittings have either Tri Clover ferrules or RJT male and female parts. All our stocked RJT fittings use a hex nut, but we can manufacture using a slotted nut if required. Our elbows are available in 90 and 45 degree bends. The tees we stock are equal tees but we can weld up swept tees as a special request. The reducers we stock are concentric reducers and we can also supply eccentric reducers as a custom item. Any of the RJT Reducers have the male part on the smaller end and the weld liner and hex nut on the larger end. We also stock both A & E series butterfly valves. The A series is the same as a Keystone F250 valve with the Trigger action handle. The E series features a simple pull and twist action handle. Our inline Sight glasses, which feature a polycarbonate tube. We stock them from 1” right up to 6”. There are many other fittings that are part of our Cellar and Brew fittings range. This range includes hose tails; both single and double swaged, RJT hose joiners, Racking plates, Spray balls, and RJT and Tri Clover union blanks with a ½ inch or ¾ inch BSP female thread in the middle. We have an extensive range of adapters for Tri Clover, RJT and press-fit. These can all be found on our website. We also stock a range of Ball lock quick connect gas fittings, ready to use with either BSP or Hosetail connections. For our custom fabrication service, get in touch with us by phone or email, or draw any of our fittings that you’d like us to weld together and we can quote you a price. This service compliments the sale of our fittings and can be used with products across the range, from schedule pipe to dairy tube fittings. All of these are purge welded if applicable and cleaned before they are sent out. Our team can easily price any fittings to be welded and delivered to you. It is not only limited to welding but we offer a machining and threading service for any tube, pipe or fittings.

It is often mistaken that the outside diameter of the flange end of the ferrule is interpreted as the size of the tri clover, but that is not the case. Tri Clover unions consist of two ferrules with a grooved face to seat a seal in between. This is held together by a 1-piece heavy duty clamp with a single pin and a twist-to-tighten handle. The clamped union provides a smooth, non-contaminating internal tube joint for manufacturing hygienic product. The unit can also be known as a Tri Clamp union. A standard Tri Clover Ferrule butt-welds to imperial tube sizes. Ferrules are also available as Tri Clover Expansion Ferrule which features a ridged inside that works as a slip-on connection to suit imperial tube sizes. Both ferrule types are available as a standard Long Ferrule or as a Short Ferrule. The Short Ferrule has been developed to suit pumps and valves or process lines which are operating in confined areas. The black EPDM Tri Clover Seals are used for standard applications and grey Viton Tri Clover Seals are used for high temperature and chemical resistance purposes. Typical applications include pharmaceutical machinery and food & beverage plants in almost any industry globally. The New Zealand market uses Tri Clover unions, particularly for dairy sheds, due to the easy installation and the ability for a quick and clean disconnect of a process line.

Ferrules are used to connect the sanitary process lines to the union. These come in short, medium and long. The Metal Company have both Expansion or otherwise known as Slip On Ferrules and Butt Weld Ferrules. Tri Clover Expansion Ferrules have ridges on the inside and slip over the tube. These require just one weld to create a hygienic join. While Butt Weld Ferrules are typically purge welded for hygienic applications.

The Liquid Level Gauge is made up of two parts, known as the ‘Upper’ and ‘Lower’ fitting. These are used with 19.05mm polycarbonate or borosilicate glass tube. This tube is friction fitted between the two fittings into a silicone seal at the outlets. This allows fluid to flow up to a maximum temperature of 180°C. Each unit has a stainless steel retaining nut. The nut acts as handwheel to gauge the flow through the tube and a 25.4-38.1m Tri Clover connection to let the liquid enter and exit. As the name suggests, liquid levels of tanks or barrels can be gauged by positioning the Upper Gauge at the top of the tank and the Lower Gauge near the bottom. This allows an external view of the liquid level within. The individual gauges are able to withstand a maximum pressure of 145PSI (10Bar); however, this may be less depending on the glass tube handling pressure.
