Stainless Steel Sanitary Pipe Fittings & Valves

Sanitary pipe fittings and valves for hoses allow secure and rapid sanitary tube attachments with control in a broad spectrum of industrial applications, including the food & beverage (F&B), cosmetics, chemical, and pharmaceutical industries as well as for sewage and biotechnology treatment.

Stainless steel sanitary fittings, like conventional fittings, join parts of pipe systems to regulate fluid flow, but they are carefully designed and manufactured to prevent the trapping, creation, and spread of germs in the piping system. Sanitary fittings are also utilised in facilities that employ potentially hazardous chemicals to reduce safety hazards and guarantee that contamination does not occur as a result of leakage. The job of sanitary fittings is thus critical in ensuring that hygiene and safety requirements are met at all times. Since they are cleanable, they ensure that the essential levels of cleanliness and sterility are maintained during usage.

Stainless steel is used for the majority of sanitary fittings. They must be composed of sterilisable, corrosion-resistant materials capable of withstanding repeated exposure to chemicals, pressure, and high temperatures. While stainless steel is a widely used material for sanitary fittings, high-grade alloys are also utilised on occasion. Stainless steel is inherently antibacterial and rust and corrosion-resistant. It is also a simple-to-clean surface that is ideal for establishments where cleanliness and hygiene are paramount.

At Pharmchem Engineering, our goods are manufactured from the highest grade stainless steel (long-lasting and corrosion-resistant) and are obtainable in SUS 304, SUS 304L, SUS 316, and SUS 316L. As a material that is made to last, have peace of mind as our stainless steel sanitary fittings are easy to clean without it going through a corrosion process.
