Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using the wrong size U-bolt for the pipe.Always verify the nominal pipe size and the U-bolt's inside dimensions to ensure a proper fit.
Over-tightening the nuts, which can deform the pipe or the U-bolt.Tighten nuts gradually and evenly. Use a torque wrench if precise load is required, especially for critical applications.
Installing in corrosive environments without considering material compatibility.Brass offers excellent corrosion resistance, but for extreme chemical exposure, consult material compatibility charts.

Common Applications
