| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using the wrong size U-bolt for the pipe diameter. | Verify the pipe's nominal size and ensure the U-bolt's inside dimensions (width and length) are appropriate for a secure fit. |
| Uneven tightening of the nuts. | Tighten the nuts in an alternating pattern to ensure consistent pressure distribution around the pipe and prevent stress concentrations. |
