Specified by design engineers worldwide, this U-Bolt is constructed from premium 316 stainless steel, renowned for its exceptional resistance to chlorides and pitting corrosion, making it ideal for marine, chemical processing, and food/beverage applications. The precise dimensions include an inside width (A) of 4.21 inches and an inside length (B) of 7.63 inches, designed to securely accommodate standard 3" nominal pipe. The robust 1/2"-13 UNC threading on both legs provides ample engagement for secure fastening with appropriate nuts and washers (sold separately), ensuring reliable pipe and conduit anchoring.
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 3" pipe, ensuring proper alignment with mounting surface. 2. Securely attach the U-bolt with the appropriate size 1/2"-13 nuts and washers (sold separately) to the mounting bracket or structural member. 3. Tighten nuts evenly to achieve firm support without over-tightening, which could deform the pipe or mounting surface.

| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard carbon steel U-bolts in corrosive environments. | Always select 316 stainless steel for applications exposed to saltwater, chemicals, or high humidity to prevent premature corrosion and failure. |
| Incorrectly sizing the U-bolt for the pipe. | Verify the pipe's nominal size and use the U-bolt's specified inside width (A) and inside length (B) to ensure a proper fit. This 4.21" width is specifically for 3" pipe. |
