| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using the wrong size U-bolt for the pipe, leading to a loose or over-tightened fit. | Verify the nominal pipe size and measure the actual pipe OD to select the correctly sized U-bolt with the specified inside width (A). |
| Insufficient or uneven tightening of the nuts, resulting in vibration and potential loosening. | Tighten nuts evenly on both sides of the U-bolt to the recommended torque specification for the thread size, ensuring a secure and stable installation. |
