Tuf-Steel Tri-Clamp Orifice Plate Gasket, Grey - 3" w/ 316L Stainless Steel Blank Plate

Description

Note: Tuf-Steel Orifice Plates ship with a blank plate finished to 15 µ-in Ra as standard, but we are happy to accommodate special requests for hole boring (concentric or eccentric), electropolishing, metal detectable elastomers, and custom cut patterns.Rubber Fab's Tuf-Steel® Sanitary Tri-Clamp® Gaskets are the material of choice when purity, long service life, performance, chemical resistance, and heat resistance are required. Tuf-Steel® Gaskets are 100% leak free when torqued correctly, and will experience minimum creep and cold flow. The Tuf-Steel® material is a unique proprietary blend of non-pigmented PTFE (Teflon®) and 316L Stainless Steel that has been water atomized and passivated. The end result is a Tuf-Steel® Gasket that is non-stick, features no pigmentation, and has ultra-low absorption rates. These Tri-Clamp® Gaskets can maintain seal integrity under large temperature fluctuations. We recommend the use of the Torque-Rite® Clamp Nut to get the most out of these gaskets.Tuf-Steel® Tri-Clamp® Gasket Features:- Color Code: No Dot- -350°F to 550°F Temperature Range- Proprietary blend of PTFE and 316L (water atomized and passivated)- Maintains seal with wide temperature variations- Metal Detectable- Extended service life- Leak-proof performance- Extremely durable- Great for SIP(steam in place) and WFI (water for injection) applications- Non-pigmented- Non-stick surface- Minimal cold flow and creep- 500 CIP/SIP cycles guaranteed- Excellent expansion/contraction stability- Minimal thermal expansion- Excellent Chemical Resistance- Compression Controlled Gasket- Rouging Eliminated- No gasket extrusion into sanitary tube ID- No obstruction of flow- Many standard drill bore sizes available- Self Draining- Reduce Flow- Balance Backflow- Equalize Backpressure- Prevent Dead Legs- Increase Line Pressure- Increase Fluid Velocity
