| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using the wrong U-bolt size for the nominal pipe diameter, leading to a loose or overly tight fit. | Always verify the nominal pipe size and select a U-bolt with appropriate inside dimensions (A and B) to ensure a snug and secure fit. |
| Over-tightening the nuts, which can deform the pipe or damage the threads. | Employ a torque wrench and adhere to the recommended tightening specifications for the specific application to prevent damage. |
