Sanitary Gaskets

Sanitary gaskets are sealing components used at compatible tube-fitting connections and selected plumbing fittings. Commercial processing, maintenance, and facility teams use them to help create tight connections in food processing, pharmaceutical, biotechnology, plumbing, and water-system applications.

Use Cases

Seal sanitary and plumbing connections

Use sanitary tube gaskets to help seal compatible tube-fitting grooves in processing lines. Selected EPDM, Buna-N, and short-shank gaskets are intended for compatible plumbing and water-system fitting connections.

How to Choose

Match the fitting before the material

Confirm whether the connection is a sanitary tube fitting, a female IPT short-shank fitting, or a female cam and groove coupling. Then match the listed tube or fitting size and select the material and finish specified for the application.

Applications

Support processing and maintenance work

The represented sanitary tube gaskets are used in food processing, pharmaceutical, and biotechnology lines. Other listed gasket types support plumbing, water-system, coupling, replacement, and assembly work.

Additional Info

Consider cleanliness and added functions

Some options are cleanroom prepared, cleaned and bagged, or described as suitable where a clean gasket is needed. A 1.5-inch EPDM option with a bonded 100 mesh screen provides inline straining while sealing the connection.

Planning Guide

Plan the right fit before choosing

Connection planning

Identify the exact gasket interface

A correct fit begins with the connection type. Sanitary gasket options are listed for compatible tube fittings and fitting grooves, while separate replacement styles are listed for female IPT short-shank fittings and female cam and groove couplings.

  • Sanitary tube sizes represented include 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, and 6 inches.
  • Several tube gaskets are described for compatible Tri-Clamp tube fittings.
  • Short-shank gasket options are listed for 2-inch and 4-inch female IPT short-shank fittings.
  • A Buna-N option is listed for 1-1/2-inch female cam and groove couplings.
Material and environment

Compare resistance descriptions with application needs

Material selection is an important part of comparing the available gasket types. Silicone options are described with resistance to temperature extremes or temperature changes, chemicals, water, and steam. EPDM options are described with resistance to water, chemicals, and animal and vegetable oils. One cleanroom-prepared black tube gasket is described with resistance to high temperatures, chemicals, and oils.

  • Choose silicone when the listed resistance profile aligns with the connection's conditions.
  • Choose EPDM options based on their listed water, chemical, and oil resistance.
  • Use the Buna-N gasket only for its stated compatible cam and groove coupling application.
  • Use finish color as an additional identification detail: clear, white, or black.
Cleanliness and process function

Select special features only where needed

For clean sanitary applications, compare the listed cleanroom preparation details. Certain gaskets are prepared in an ISO Class 10000 cleanroom, and one silicone option is described as USP Class VI compliant. Where material capture is needed during process flow, the screened EPDM gasket incorporates a bonded 100 mesh screen.

  • Cleanroom preparation is listed on selected 2-inch, 1.5-inch, and 4-inch tube gasket options.
  • The screened gasket is listed for compatible 1.5-inch sanitary tube connections.
  • Most represented products list an effective minimum order quantity of 1.
  • Match cleanroom, compliance, and screening details to the stated needs of the application.
