| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using undersized or oversized U-bolts, leading to insecure pipe support or damage. | Always verify the nominal pipe size and select a U-bolt with corresponding inside dimensions to ensure a proper fit. |
| Over-tightening or under-tightening nuts, compromising structural integrity and potentially damaging the pipe or mounting surface. | Refer to manufacturer specifications or engineering guidelines for recommended torque values and use a calibrated torque wrench for accurate tightening. |
