Can TRICLOVER flange end with smooth tail, stainless steel, type TCR be used with hoses lined with PTFE, PFA, FEP, MFA or UPE in pharmaceutical applications?

Yes. TRICLOVER flange end with smooth tail, stainless steel, type TCR can be used with hoses lined with PTFE, PFA, FEP, MFA or UPE in pharmaceutical applications. It is designed for rubber and plastic hoses, including rubber hoses with a lining of UPE, PTFE, FEP, MFA, PFA, and is intended for pharmaceutical, biotechnological, cosmetic, food and chemical industries for liquid and highâviscosity media. Ensure correct clamp type (TIâLR, TIâLDR or RS shell clamp) and observe working pressure limits by size (e.g. â¥16 bar for 2", 10 bar for sizes >2") and proper installation to meet hygienic and pressure requirements.

Can TRICLOVER flange end with smooth tail, stainless steel, type TCR be sterilized for repeated use in pharmaceutical processes?

Yes. TRICLOVER flange end with smooth tail, stainless steel, type TCR can be sterilized for repeated use in pharmaceutical processes, with considerations: - Material compatibility: Made from AISI 316 stainless steel, which is broadly suitable for repeated sterilization by common methods (steam autoclaving, chemical sterilants, and certain SIP procedures), and resists corrosion in pharmaceutical environments. - Design and sealing: The smooth "tail" is intended for rubber and plastic hoses (including UPE, PTFE, FEP, MFA, PFA-lined hoses). Sterilization suitability depends on the hose and seal materials used: elastomers and polymers have specific temperature and chemical limits. Use hose/liner materials and clamp gaskets rated for repeated sterilization to maintain integrity and prevent contamination. - Connection and clamps: Proper sealing and mechanical integrity require correct clamp systems (TI-LR, TI-LDR, RS shell clamp). Clamps must withstand sterilization cycles and maintain pressure ratings (â¥16 bar at 2", â¥10 bar above 2" as specified) to ensure safe operation during service and sterilization. - Validation and procedures: Implement validated sterilization cycles (temperature, time, and sterilant concentration) compatible with the hose/liner and gasket materials. Routine inspection for pitting, crevice corrosion, sealing wear, and polymer degradation is essential. Follow cleaning (CIP) and sterilization (SIP/autoclave/chemical) protocols and document acceptance criteria per GMP. Conclusion: The TRICLOVER flange end with smooth tail, stainless steel, type TCR is suitable for repeated sterilization when paired with compatible hose/liner and gasket materials, appropriate clamps, and validated cleaning/sterilization and inspection procedures.

Additional information

Material	SS – stainless steel

TRICLOVER flange end with a smooth “tail” for rubber and plastic hoses, as well as rubber hoses with a layer of UPE, PTFE, FEP, MFA, PFA. For use in the pharmaceutical, biotechnological, cosmetic, food, and chemical industries, for liquid and high-viscosity media. The working pressure depends on the size of the connection and the type of clamp used (at least 16 bar for size 2″, 10 bar for sizes above 2″). Installation: TI-LR, TI-LDR clamp sleeves or using RS shell clamp. Material: AISI 316 steel.
