Product Guide & Technical Article

Dairy & Sanitary Fittings for Food & Beverage Processing

Sanitary fittings are specially designed for hygienic applications in food, beverage, dairy, and pharmaceutical processing. Their crevice-free design prevents bacterial contamination and ensures compliance with food safety regulations.

What Makes a Fitting 'Sanitary'?

Sanitary fittings feature smooth internal surfaces (Ra ≤ 0.8μm), no crevices or dead zones where bacteria can accumulate, and quick-release clamp connections (Tri-Clamp / SMS / IDF) that allow easy disassembly for cleaning and inspection.

Connection Standards

SMS (Swedish Milk Standard) — widely used in Europe. IDF (International Dairy Federation) — international standard. RJT (Royal Jar Thread) — common in UK dairy industry. Tri-Clamp / TC — most popular globally for ease of assembly.

Product Range

Dairy nipples, unions, elbows, tees, reducers, end caps, clamps and gaskets, butterfly valves, ball valves, check valves, safety valves, and sampling valves in SS 304/304L and SS 316/316L.

Compliance & Certifications

Materials conform to FDA 21 CFR and EU 1935/2004 food contact regulations. Surface finishes verified by Ra measurement. Electropolishing available for pharmaceutical-grade applications.
