Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Overtightening, which can deform the pipe or strip the threads.Tighten nuts gradually and evenly, using a torque wrench if specified for the application, to achieve a secure fit without excessive force.
Using the wrong size U-bolt for the pipe diameter.Always verify the U-bolt's inside width and length against the pipe's nominal size and the mounting requirements before installation.
