Tri Clamp (also known as Tri Clover) is a tubing connection system that allows making sanitary interconnections in stainless steel fluid transport systems. It is commonly found in the Pharma, food processing, dairy, wine, and beer brewing industries, where hygiene is critical and any space, crevice, thread, or gap which can harbor bacteria must be avoided. They are easy to assemble, disassemble, and clean.

TC is commonly used as an abbreviation for Tri Clamp.

Rheology – is the study of the flow of matter, liquids and solids.
