| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using the wrong size U-bolt for the pipe diameter. | Always verify the U-bolt's inside width and length against the nominal pipe size and any insulation being used to ensure a proper fit. |
| Overtightening or undertightening the nuts. | Tighten nuts to the manufacturer's recommended torque specification to avoid damaging the pipe or the U-bolt, or creating an insecure connection. |
| Using a U-bolt not rated for the environmental conditions. | Select U-bolts made from materials like 304 stainless steel for corrosive or wet environments to prevent premature failure due to rust or degradation. |
