Differences between Overlapping And Intermediate Clamps

Overlapping Clamp

Structural Features: The two semi-rings of the clamp overlap when closed, resulting in a larger contact area and more even clamping force distribution.

Advantages: Better sealing effect, able to withstand higher pressure and vacuum, and strong vibration resistance.

Intermediate Clamp

Structural Features: The two semi-rings of the clamp clamp from both sides towards the middle, resulting in a relatively smaller contact area. The sealing ring is directly compressed by the tension of the bolts.

Advantages: Faster installation speed and lower space requirements.

Comparison of Usage Effects

Application Scenarios Selection Guide

Choose the right stacked clamps:

1. Sanitary piping in the food, beverage, and pharmaceutical industries (requiring zero leakage)

2. High-pressure, high-vacuum fluid transport systems

3. Connections to equipment with strong vibrations, such as pumps and compressors

4. Pipe connections with large diameters (≥50mm)

Choose the intermediate clamps:

1. Low-pressure scenarios such as general industrial pipelines and ventilation ducts

2. Temporary pipelines requiring quick installation and frequent disassembly

3. Small-diameter (≤50mm), low-pressure, vibration-free conditions

4. Projects with cost sensitivity and high installation efficiency requirements
