304 Stainless Steel Construction: Offers excellent corrosion resistance and durability for sanitary processing environments, with a maximum operating pressure of 250 psi at ambient temperature.
3A Sanitary Standards Compliance: Meets 3-A Standard 63-03 (Authorization No. 621), making it suitable for applications where hygiene and cleanability are critical.
Long Weld Design: The extended barrel length (Dimension A consistent across sizes) provides ample surface area for orbital welding, ensuring strong, leak-resistant joints.
Versatile Sizing: Available from 1/2" to 6" Tube OD, supporting a wide range of sanitary piping systems with standardized dimensions.
The L14AM7 Long Weld Ferrule is installed by butt-welding the ferrule's barrel end directly to a sanitary tube or pipe. Once welded, the ferrule's clamp end (Tri-Clamp compatible) provides a flush, crevice-free sealing surface. When two ferrules are joined with a sanitary clamp and gasket, the ferrule acts as the compression sealing surface, creating a leak-proof connection that enables quick disassembly for cleaning without disturbing the welded joint.
3A Certified Quality: Our L14AM7 series is sourced from certified manufacturers, ensuring full compliance with food-grade and sanitary industry regulations.
Competitive Pricing & Availability: We maintain stock across multiple sizes (R50 through R400), offering short lead times to keep your production on schedule.
Traceability: Each ferrule is marked with heat number and material grade, providing full traceability for quality audits and compliance requirements.
Global Shipping Expertise: We handle international logistics with customs clearance support, delivering DAP terms worldwide.
What does "L14AM7" signify in the model number?
L14AM7 is Dixon's series designation for long weld ferrules in 304SS material. Variants with "-G" suffix denote 304SS, while "-R" suffix denotes 316L stainless steel.
What is the difference between long and standard weld ferrules?
Long weld ferrules (like L14AM7) feature a longer barrel length compared to standard ferrules, which provides better heat dissipation during welding and prevents deformation of the sealing face.
Are these ferrules compatible with Tri-Clamp fittings?
Yes, the clamp end is designed to standard Tri-Clamp dimensions, ensuring compatibility with most sanitary clamp systems used in the food, beverage, and pharmaceutical industries.
What applications are these ferrules suitable for?
They are ideal for dairy, brewery, winery, food processing, and pharmaceutical applications where sanitary connections and 3A compliance are required
