Single-Use Connections

Single-use molded end connections are hygienic, polymer-based hose or tubing terminations that are molded directly onto the tubing—not mechanically clamped, barbed, or glued. Because the end connection and the tubing are formed as one integral piece, the assembly is truly “one continuous flow path” with no seams, crevices, or entrapment points.

They’re predominantly used in biopharmaceutical, biotech, cell & gene therapy, and aseptic processing, where maintaining sterility, reducing contamination risks, and eliminating cleaning validation are critical.

Cable tie clamps are simple, disposable, compression-style hose/tubing restraints that secure flexible pharmaceutical tubing to barbed or hose-tail style connectors.

They provide a fast, low-cost, single-use alternative to stainless-steel crimp collars, Oetiker clamps, or reusable compression fittings.

They’re widely used in biopharmaceutical and aseptic processing because they maintain a sterile flow path while allowing cost-effective disposal of the entire assembly after use.

Although single-use systems are designed to be disposable, not every connection point is plastic or molded. In many applications—especially where pressure, mechanical strength, or sanitary compliance is critical—stainless-steel clamp connections are used to create a secure, hygienic joint between tubing and barbed fittings or sanitary tri-clamp ends.

These provide a higher-pressure, more robust alternative to cable ties or plastic clamps while still being compatible with disposable assemblies.
