| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Incorrect U-bolt diameter selection, leading to loose or over-stressed pipe. | Always verify the U-bolt's inside dimensions (width and length) match the O.D. and required clearance for the specific pipe being secured. |
| Using standard carbon steel U-bolts in corrosive environments. | Utilize 316 stainless steel for applications exposed to saltwater, chemicals, or high humidity to prevent premature corrosion and failure. |
