RJT FITTINGS

RJT (Ring Joint Type) fittings are a type of hygienic stainless steel pipe coupling widely used in the UK for industries that require stringent cleanliness standards, such as food processing, brewing, and pharmaceuticals. 

Key Information

  • Standard: RJT fittings are manufactured to the British Standard BS 4825 Part 5.
  • Material: Wetted parts are typically made from grade 316 or 316L stainless steel, while the hexagon nut is made from 304 stainless steel. This provides excellent corrosion resistance and durability.
  • Components: A complete RJT union consists of four main parts: a hexagon nut, a male part, a liner (either pressed or machined), and an O-ring seal.
  • Seal Materials: The O-ring seals are available in various materials to suit different applications, including Nitrile (standard), EPDM, Silicone, FKM/Viton®, and PTFE.
  • Size Range: They are generally available in imperial tube sizes ranging from 1 inch to 6 inches. 

Features and Benefits

  • Hygienic Design: The fittings are designed with a polished surface to minimise crevices where bacteria could accumulate, making them easy to clean either manually or as part of a Clean In Place (CIP) system.
  • Ease of Use: The threaded design with a hexagonal nut allows for quick and easy assembly and disassembly using an RJT spanner, which is ideal for systems that require frequent maintenance or reconfiguration.
  • Forgiving Installation: RJT unions are considered forgiving when accommodating minor tube misalignment, which simplifies installation.
  • Leak-Proof: The O-ring seal ensures a secure and leak-free connection, critical for maintaining product integrity and preventing contamination.
