Description

Our PTFE-, ETFE-, and PFA-lined Tri-Clamp 90° Elbows deliver a smooth, chemically inert flow path for high-purity and corrosive media. Built on a robust stainless-steel substrate, these elbows pair mechanical strength with fluoropolymer non-stick performance to protect product integrity and extend system life.
Ideal for chemical processing, pharmaceutical, biotech, and sanitary applications where contamination, extractables, and corrosion cannot be tolerated. The lined bore maintains laminar flow through directional changes while minimizing pressure drop and clean-in-place downtime.
Available in common sanitary sizes and finishes to integrate seamlessly into existing Tri-Clamp piping systems.

Verify media compatibility with selected liner (PTFE / ETFE / PFA) before use. Sanitary fittings are inspected prior to shipment to ensure sealing surface quality.
Chemically Inert Lining 304 Stainless Body Sanitary Tri-Clamp Ends CIP/SIP Friendly
Inert Flow Path: Fluoropolymer bore resists acids, solvents, and aggressive media to protect product quality.
Hygienic & Efficient: 90° radius maintains smooth flow, reducing turbulence and pressure drop.
Durable Construction: 304/316L stainless body with full-coverage PTFE/ETFE/PFA lining for long service life.

Why this PTFE / ETFE / PFA Lined Tri-Clamp 90° Elbow?

Chemical resistance — inert PTFE/ETFE/PFA lining shields against acids, caustics, and solvents.
Process purity — non-stick bore reduces adsorption, extractables, and cross-contamination.
Flow performance — precision 90° geometry supports laminar flow and efficient cleaning.
Sanitary integration — standard Tri-Clamp ends drop-in to existing hygienic lines.
Thermal range — typical service window ≈ −20°F to 400°F (liner dependent).

FAQ

What are the benefits of fluoropolymer-lined elbows?

The PTFE / ETFE / PFA Lined Tri-Clamp 90-Degree Elbows provide a chemically inert, non-stick bore that resists aggressive media, minimizes contamination risks, and improves cleanability compared with unlined stainless elbows.
Which liner should I choose: PTFE, ETFE, or PFA?

For PTFE / ETFE / PFA Lined Tri-Clamp 90-Degree Elbows : PTFE offers broad chemical resistance and non-stick performance; ETFE provides toughness and abrasion resistance; PFA combines high purity with excellent high-temperature capability. Verify against your specific media and temperature.
Are these compatible with standard sanitary Tri-Clamp fittings?

Yes. PTFE / ETFE / PFA Lined Tri-Clamp 90-Degree Elbows feature industry-standard Tri-Clamp ends for drop-in compatibility with existing hygienic piping and gaskets.
What is the typical operating temperature range?

PTFE / ETFE / PFA Lined Tri-Clamp 90-Degree Elbows are commonly specified for approximately −20°F to 400°F, depending on liner type, dwell time, and pressure/vacuum. Always confirm for your process.
