| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Over-tightening the U-bolt, which can deform the pipe or strip the threads. | Tighten nuts gradually and evenly, using a torque wrench if specified for the application to avoid over-compression. |
| Using the wrong size U-bolt for the pipe diameter, leading to inadequate support or damage. | Always verify the inside width (A) and inside length (B) against the pipe's outer diameter and the required clearance for secure mounting. |
