| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Over-tightening the U-bolt nuts, which can deform the pipe or mounting surface. | Utilize a torque wrench to apply the manufacturer-specified torque for the U-bolt and application. |
| Using the wrong size U-bolt for the pipe, leading to insecure fastening or damage. | Verify the nominal pipe size and the U-bolt's inside dimensions before installation to ensure a proper fit. |
