2.500" Male I-Line Short Weld Ferrule - (14WI) - 304 Stainless

Male Short Weld I-Line Ferrule (14WI) – 304 Stainless Steel

PNW Sanitary Male Short Weld I-Line Ferrules (14WI) provide a secure, sanitary connection for permanent installations in stainless process systems. Designed to weld directly to tubing, these ferrules create a leak-resistant, rigid joint when mated with a corresponding I-Line female ferrule and clamp. The interlocking I-Line design delivers superior strength, vibration resistance, and alignment compared to standard sanitary connections.

Manufactured from 304 stainless steel, each ferrule offers excellent mechanical durability, corrosion resistance, and weldability for hygienic systems in food, beverage, dairy, brewery, cosmetic, nutraceutical, and pharmaceutical environments. Circular welding is required to join the ferrule to the tubing, ensuring a smooth, crevice-free interior surface suitable for sanitary processing.
