Sanke to tri clamp

Post by **rgreen2002** » Sat Mar 12, 2016 7:18 am

Hello all,
I had a quick question. Right now I connect my 2' x 48' Boka to my 1/2 keg boiler. I have an ez flange setup but I find I was getting small leaks due to the flange not being fully flat or other minor imperfections (I have flattened and shaped it several times since). I have flattened my ptfe gasket and wrapped it in ptfe tape so that it might mold better between the connections but still leak occasionally. I then end up wrapping the entire connection in ptfe tape then clamping and this does the job. Does anyone know if there is a sanke to tri clamp adapter apart from removing the sanke and welding a new ferrule in its place?

If not... I have a 2' copper ferrule that I could weld on to the boka and then just modify a new gasket to flatten one side... anyone think this will seal better? I am really looking for the stability of a ferrule/ferrule connection if possible but will settle for more consistent "leak free" connections.
