Precision-manufactured to tight tolerances, this 3-inch polycarbonate U-bolt (Part # PCUB302532) ensures a precise fit for 3" nominal pipe sizes. Featuring an inside width (A) of 3.02 inches and an inside length (B) of 5.32 inches, it accommodates standard pipe dimensions. The 1/2"-13 UNC thread provides robust fastening capability. Constructed from high-impact, UV-stabilized polycarbonate, it exhibits excellent chemical resistance to acids, bases, and solvents, along with superior dielectric strength. This material choice significantly reduces galvanic corrosion risks, making it ideal for marine, chemical processing, and food/beverage industries. Operating temperature range is -40°F to 250°F (-40°C to 121°C).
This component strictly adheres to the tolerances, material specifications, and quality benchmarks set by the world's leading industrial manufacturers.
1. Place the U-bolt around the 3" pipe, ensuring it rests securely in the U-bolt's curve. 2. Position the two accompanying flat or curved washers (if applicable) and thread the nuts onto the U-bolt legs. 3. Tighten the nuts evenly and progressively to achieve a secure fit, avoiding over-tightening which could damage the polycarbonate.
