What Parts Are Needed to Set Up or Expand My Brewery?
The 4 most important sanitary components for breweries
When setting up or scaling a brewery, you’ll need sanitary fittings, hoses, valves, and pumps that can handle both hot wort transfer and cold-side fermentation without risking contamination. The most common solutions include tri-clamp fittings for quick cleaning and batch changes, FDA-approved brewery hoses for safe transfer of hot and cold liquids, sanitary butterfly or ball valves for precise flow control, and stainless steel pumps designed for brewing applications.
At Sanitary Fittings, we provide all of these components, certified to 3-A, USDA, and FDA standards, so you can source everything you need from one trusted supplier.
Tri-Clamp Fittings
Tri-clamp fittings are the gold standard in breweries because they’re easy to assemble, disassemble, and clean, making them ideal for frequent batch changes and sanitation. Crafted from polished stainless steel, they ensure a secure, leak-free connection every time.
Food Safe Brewery Hoses
Our brewery hoses are FDA-approved and designed to handle both hot wort and cold-side transfer, offering flexibility without compromising durability. They resist kinking and maintain a smooth interior surface to reduce contamination risk.
Sanitary Valves (Butterfly & Ball)
Sanitary butterfly and ball valves provide precise flow control while being simple to operate and maintain. Their crevice-free, stainless steel construction ensures clean-in-place (CIP) compatibility and long-lasting reliability.

Centrifugal Pumps
Brewery pumps are built to safely transfer liquids at different stages of brewing, from hot wort circulation to cold-side fermentation. Designed for efficiency and sanitation, they help streamline production while protecting flavor integrity.

Brewery FAQs
Common questions about brewing systems, components, and processes
What types of sanitary fittings are most commonly used in breweries?
Breweries primarily use Tri-Clamp fittings, along with hose barbs, DIN fittings, and sanitary valves. Tri-clamps are popular because they’re easy to install, remove, and clean which makes them ideal for systems that may require frequent maintenance or batch changeovers.
More questions about the Tri-Clamp style? Read our mini-FAQ, “Tri-Clamp Fittings Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)“.
Are your fittings certified for use in food and beverage applications?
Yes. All our brewery fittings are 3-A, USDA, and FDA-compliant. This ensures that they meet the highest sanitary standards required in the brewing industry. This certification helps breweries maintain product quality, consistency, and safety.
Learn more about 3-A standards, “What are 3-A Sanitary Standards and How to Meet Them“.
How do I know which fitting size I need for my brewing system?
Fitting sizes are typically based on the outside diameter (OD) of the tubing or piping used in your brewhouse. Our product listings include detailed size charts, and our support team is always available to help you select the right size for your setup.
Learn more, “How to Measure Sanitary Fitting Dimensions“.
Can I use the same fittings for hot wort and cold-side processes?
Yes. Our stainless steel fittings are built to handle the full range of brewing temperatures, from boiling wort to cold-side fermentation. Using high-quality sanitary fittings ensures smooth transfer without leaks or contamination.
Do you offer fittings compatible with European DIN standards?
Absolutely. In addition to tri-clamp fittings, we carry a full line of DIN fittings widely used in European breweries. This ensures compatibility whether you’re sourcing equipment internationally or expanding your current brewhouse.
Get a refresher on DIN Standards, “What is DIN 32676?“.
What type of hose material do I need in my brewery?
Brewery hoses touch many parts of the brewing process, from transferring between tanks, to cleaning and even distribution systems. However, there is rarely one type of hose material that meets all the needs of today’s breweries. What might work great for one application may not be the best selection for another.
Here are the “Common types of hose materials used for brewing“.
