| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using the wrong size U-bolt for the pipe diameter. | Always confirm the nominal pipe size and measure the U-bolt's internal dimensions (Width A and Length B) to ensure a proper fit. |
| Overtightening the nuts, which can deform the pipe or U-bolt. | Tighten nuts incrementally and evenly. Use a torque wrench if precise clamping force is critical for the application. |
