Frequently asked questions about the 3" Tri-Clamp silicone gasket

What do I need for a 3" Tri-Clamp connection?

You need two 3" Tri-Clamp ferrules, one gasket and one 3" Tri-Clamp clamp. The gasket sits between the ferrules and the clamp is tightened around them.

What is the difference between silicone and EPDM?

Silicone is softer and more flexible than EPDM. Both are common gasket materials in Tri-Clamp systems.

When should the gasket be replaced?

Replace the gasket when it is cracked, hard, flattened or permanently discoloured. A worn gasket can leak and is harder to keep clean.
