| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Over-tightening the nuts, which can deform the pipe or the U-bolt. | Tighten nuts to the manufacturer's recommended torque specification for the pipe and mounting surface. |
| Using the wrong size U-bolt for the pipe diameter, leading to a loose or damaging fit. | Always verify the pipe's nominal size and select a U-bolt with the appropriate inside width (A) to ensure a snug and secure fit. |
