| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Over-tightening the nuts, leading to pipe deformation or damage to the mounting surface. | Use a torque wrench and adhere to recommended torque specifications for the bolt size and application to ensure secure fastening without excessive stress. |
| Selecting a U-bolt with incorrect dimensions, resulting in a loose fit or inability to properly secure the pipe. | Always verify the pipe's nominal size and measure the actual outside diameter to ensure the selected U-bolt's inside width and length are appropriate for a secure fit. |
