| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Over-tightening the nuts, leading to pipe deformation or damage to the U-bolt threads. | Tighten nuts until firm, then apply an additional quarter to half turn. Use a torque wrench for critical applications to meet specified torque values. |
| Using the wrong size U-bolt for the pipe diameter, resulting in a loose or over-stressed connection. | Always verify the pipe's outer diameter and select a U-bolt with an inside width and length that properly accommodates it. |
