ASME BPE Gaskets
PPE manufactures HyClamp™ gaskets to ASME BPE in imperial sizes from 1″ to 4″ (nominal), plus a range of mini-clamp sizes.
ASME BPE is the International Standard for Bioprocessing Equipment, published by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers. This Standard governs the design and construction of piping systems for hygienic service.
Materials for ASME BPE
ASME BPE hygienic gaskets are molded in several elastomer grades, including FFKM, FKM, EPDM, and Silicone (FMQ). X-ray and metal-detectable elastomers are also available.
PPE’s HyClamp™ materials meet key international sanitary standards and approvals, including FDA, USP Class VI, 3A 18-03 Sanitary Standards, and EC1935/EC2023. Our materials are also free from animal-derived ingredients.
