Detailed Engineering Specifications

Manufactured under strict quality controls, this U-bolt features a 4.87" inside width (A) and a 6.20" inside length (B) to accommodate standard 2" nominal pipe. The 1/2"-13 UNC threaded ends are precision-formed from a high-performance, UV-stabilized nylon compound, offering excellent tensile strength, chemical inertness, and a broad operating temperature range. This material's inherent non-conductive properties make it ideal for applications where electrical isolation or resistance to galvanic corrosion is paramount.

Installation Procedure

1. Position the U-bolt around the 2" pipe, ensuring the pipe rests securely within the saddle. 2. Thread the provided nuts onto the U-bolt legs, hand-tightening initially. 3. Using appropriate wrenches, tighten the nuts evenly in an alternating pattern until the U-bolt is snug and the pipe is firmly secured, avoiding over-tightening which could deform the nylon. 4. Install and tighten washers if included, ensuring even pressure distribution.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening the nylon U-bolt, causing deformation or cracking of the material.Tighten the nuts gradually and evenly, using a torque wrench if specifications are available for the specific nylon grade. Stop when the bolt is snug and the pipe is secure.
Using the incorrect size U-bolt, leading to a loose or damaged pipe.Always verify the pipe's nominal size and measure the U-bolt's inside dimensions (width and length) to ensure a proper fit before installation.

Common Applications

  • Plumbing and HVAC pipe support
  • Electrical conduit mounting
