# Sanitary clamp weld ferrules, short and medium: ½ to 4 in

> What are the flange and tube dimensions of each tri-clamp ferrule size?

- Category: Hardware › Sanitary clamp fittings
- Kind: Standard part
- Basis: ASME BPE / 3-A clamp-fitting dimensions published identically by Dixon and Steel & O'Brien; ISO 2852 face profile
- Page: https://xemstudio.com/objects/sanitary-clamp-ferrules/ · JSON: https://xemstudio.com/api/geometry?object=sanitary-clamp-ferrules · Plain text: https://xemstudio.com/objects/sanitary-clamp-ferrules/sheet.txt

**Exact dimensions.** Every file is drawn at true size with no printing tolerance. The holes and pins that meet another part are listed below under Mating features, with the fit each joint needs; open those by your printer's or process's clearance before making the part.

## Notes

- A weld ferrule: one ISO 2852 face on a length of BPE tube. Short (14WMP) is 12.7 mm (0.5 in) long, medium (L14AM7) 28.6 mm (1.125 in).
- Tube OD 12.7 / 19.05 / 25.4 / 38.1 / 50.8 / 63.5 / 76.2 / 101.6 mm, wall 1.65 mm (4 in: 2.11).
- Flange: ½–¾ in share Ø25.0, 1–1½ in share Ø50.5, 2 in Ø64.0, 2½ in Ø77.5, 3 in Ø91.0, 4 in Ø119.0.
- Faces are the ISO 2852 profile (2.85 mm rim, 1.6 mm gasket recess, 20° back cone) on the BPE flange diameters; the groove diameter on ½, ¾ and 4 in is derived (flange − 7.0 / 7.5 mm), the rest is from the standard.

## Questions

**What is the flange diameter of a 2 inch tri-clamp?**

64.0 mm; 1 and 1½ in share 50.5, ½ and ¾ in share 25.0, 2½ in 77.5, 3 in 91.0, 4 in 119.0.

**Is a 1½ inch tri-clamp the same as a 1 inch?**

Same Ø50.5 flange and clamp, different tube: 38.1 vs 25.4 mm OD.

**What is the wall of sanitary tube?**

1.65 mm (0.065 in) from ½ to 3 in; 2.11 mm (0.083 in) at 4 in.
