Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using the wrong size U-bolt for the pipe diameter.Always verify the nominal pipe size and U-bolt dimensions (Inside Width and Length) to ensure a proper fit and secure clamping.
Over-tightening the nuts, which can deform the pipe or the U-bolt.Tighten nuts gradually and evenly. If specific torque values are critical for your application, consult relevant engineering standards or material specifications.
