| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Over-tightening U-bolt nuts, which can deform the pipe or the U-bolt itself. | Use a torque wrench to tighten nuts to the manufacturer's recommended specification for the thread size and material. |
| Selecting a U-bolt with incorrect dimensions for the pipe size and mounting requirements. | Always verify inside width and length against the pipe's outer diameter and the mounting bracket thickness before ordering. |
