TC Hose Ferrule
What are TC Hose Ferrule?
TC Hose Ferrule is a type of sanitary hose fitting designed to connect flexible hoses with tri-clamp (TC) systems in hygienic process lines. It provides a secure, leak-proof connection between a hose and other process equipment, ensuring smooth fluid transfer while maintaining high sanitary standards.
Asiad Steel Industries manufactures and exports premium-grade TC Hose Ferrule under the Racer brand, ensuring superior finish, durability, and compliance with ASME BPE, ISO 2852, and DIN 32676 sanitary standards.
