| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using the wrong U-bolt size for the pipe. | Always verify the nominal pipe size and select a U-bolt with appropriate inside dimensions to ensure a snug and secure fit. |
| Inconsistent tightening of nuts, leading to uneven stress. | Tighten nuts incrementally and alternately to ensure even distribution of clamping force across both legs of the U-bolt. |
