Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening the nuts, which can deform the pipe or the U-bolt.Tighten nuts to the recommended torque specification for the fastener size and application. Use a torque wrench for accuracy.
Using the wrong size U-bolt for the pipe diameter, leading to a loose or damaged connection.Verify the 'Pipe Size' and 'Inside Width (A)' dimensions to ensure a proper fit for your specific pipe outer diameter.
