Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening the nuts, which can deform the pipe or the U-bolt.Use a torque wrench to tighten nuts to the manufacturer's recommended specification for the pipe and U-bolt size.
Using incorrect thread size for nuts and washers, leading to a loose or insecure connection.Verify that the nut and washer thread size matches the U-bolt's 1/2"-13 UNC thread.

Common Applications
