Tri-clamp fittings, also known as tri-clover fittings, are commonly used in professional brewery settings due to the sanitary connection made by using a gasket and clamp to connect two fittings together. These fittings can easily be broken down for cleaning and sanitizing, and do not contain any tricky threads where dirt and bacteria can hide. This particular fitting is a 1.5 in. tri-clamp tee fitting. It measures roughly 5.5 inches on the long axis and 2.5 inches from the top of the tee to the bottom of the tee. The tee is shorter on this for use with instrumentation, such as temperature sensors. Tri-clamp fittings make it easy to quickly break down your brewing setup for cleaning and sanitation.
