Description
Our sanitary tri-clamp reducing tee designed to connect tubes of differing sizes in a T-shaped configuration.
This high-quality, stainless steel fitting is ideal for branching or integrating process lines within a sanitary system and allows for a smooth transition between different pipe diameters.
The tri-clamp connection allows for quick installation and removal and provides a smooth seal, making it ideal for clean-in-place (CIP) systems. Tri-clamp reducing tees are sometimes called tri-clover reducing tees or clamp reducing tees.
We offer 304 and 316L stainless steel tri-clamp reducing tees in a variety of sizes.
Uses:
Fluid distribution and mixing
Bottling
Filtration processes
Steam transportation
Brewery
Dairy
Beverage
Fermentation
Pharmaceutical
Winery
And more

304 vs. 316L Stainless Steel
304 and 316L stainless steels appear visually identical, but have distinct performance characteristics.
304 stainless steel contains approximately 18% chromium and 8% nickel, making it suitable for kitchen applications and indoor environments. It performs well under normal conditions but becomes vulnerable to corrosion when exposed to salt or harsh chemicals. This makes it the more economical option for standard uses where corrosion resistance is not a primary concern.
316L stainless steel contains 2-3% molybdenum in addition to chromium and nickel, providing superior corrosion resistance, especially against saltwater and chemicals. Furthermore, 316L has a lower carbon content than 316, increasing corrosion resistance and making it ideal for welding. While it commands a higher price point than 304, it is recommended for outdoor marine environments and food processing applications involving salt.
304 is useful for some standard applications, but for the highest level of durability and harsh environments or saltwater exposure, the additional investment in 316L stainless steel is justified for long-term success.
