| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Incorrect pipe size selection. | Verify the nominal pipe size and ensure the U-bolt's inside dimensions are appropriate. For 3" nominal pipe, an inside width of 2.18" is standard. |
| Uneven tightening of nuts. | Always tighten nuts in an alternating pattern to apply even pressure and prevent stress concentrations on the pipe or mounting surface. |
