🔩 Dernord Sanitary Threaded Tri Clamp Tri Clover Fittings Review

High quality, good sealing, clean thread. Yes, these two parts are quite difficult to separate, but that's really not a problem, just gently push the tip of a flat head screwdriver between the parts (into the gasket) and then twist, they will separate instantly. Will buy more if I need them.

This is a very high quality machined part. I used the 1" version to add a Tri-Clover fitting to the Spike Brewing Flex, combined with a pair of 1" Norcal Brewing Solutions nuts (which conveniently have an O-ring groove). No additional drilling or fumbling was required. and the part was long enough so that the triple clip would not get in the way of the lid. The inside diameter isn't large enough to accommodate a spiked CIP bullet, but a smaller CIP bullet will probably do. I also used another…

2 connectors are ok but they connect with gasket and clamp. When you loosen the clamp, the fittings practically stick together. I contacted the manufacturer and they told me this is normal and you can use tools to take them apart. I tried the knife, it bent. Tried a small screwdriver, didn't help. I had to clamp them in a vise and use a chisel to separate them, this caused a little damage but I don't think it will affect their use. I will NOT use the spacer provided as I assume it "glued" them…
