COMMON QUESTIONS

Food & Beverage Processing FAQs

Which Wayland products are commonly used in food and beverage processing?

Wayland sanitary tubing, clamp and weld fittings, butterfly and ball valves, gaskets, sight glasses, spray balls and adapters are used across product-transfer, batching, tank, filling and CIP applications.

Which Wayland product families maintain 3-A certification?

Wayland maintains 3-A authorization for applicable sanitary product families. Certification is product-specific, so current product documentation should be used to confirm the exact component under review.

How should 304 versus 316L stainless steel be evaluated?

Selection should follow product chemistry, corrosion exposure, cleaning chemicals, temperature, plant standards and equipment requirements.

When should clamp connections be used instead of welded connections?

Clamp connections support inspection, maintenance and changeover access. Polished butt-weld fittings support permanent sanitary piping runs. Many systems use both methods.

How should gasket material be selected?

Consider the product, cleaning chemicals, temperature, pressure and compliance requirements. Wayland offers Buna, EPDM, FKM, PTFE, Silicone and specialty sanitary gasket options.

Are Material Test Reports available?

Yes. Applicable 304 and 316L products can be traced to EN 10204-3.1 Material Test Reports through the Wayland heat number. Search Material Test Reports →
