Trusted by engineers across multiple sectors, this U-bolt is manufactured from high-grade 316 stainless steel, offering exceptional resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and stress corrosion cracking, particularly in chloride-rich environments. With an inside width (A) of 1.75 inches and an inside length (B) of 7.60 inches, it's designed to accommodate standard 4-inch nominal pipe. The 1/2"-13 UNC thread size ensures secure attachment with standard nuts (sold separately). Its inherent durability and chemical inertness make it suitable for marine, chemical processing, food and beverage, and pharmaceutical applications.
This component strictly adheres to the tolerances, material specifications, and quality benchmarks set by the world's leading industrial manufacturers.
1. Position the U-bolt around the 4-inch nominal pipe and the mounting surface. 2. Thread the nuts onto the U-bolt legs until snug, ensuring even pressure distribution. 3. Tighten nuts to the recommended torque specification, typically 70-80 ft-lbs for 1/2"-13 threads, ensuring a secure and stable installation.

| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using a lower grade of stainless steel in corrosive environments. | Always specify 316 stainless steel for applications involving saltwater, chemicals, or high humidity to prevent premature corrosion and failure. |
| Overtightening nuts, leading to thread damage or deformation of the U-bolt. | Utilize a torque wrench and adhere to the manufacturer's recommended torque specifications for the thread size to ensure proper clamping force without damaging components. |
