Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Overtightening the nuts, which can stress or crack the polycarbonate material.Tighten nuts gradually and alternately. Refer to torque specifications if available, or hand-tighten until snug, then apply a quarter-turn.
Selecting an incorrect U-bolt size for the pipe diameter.Always verify the nominal pipe size and measure the actual outside diameter of the pipe to ensure compatibility with the U-bolt's inside dimensions (A and B).

Common Applications

  • Marine and offshore installations
  • Chemical processing plants
  • Water and wastewater treatment facilities
  • Electrical conduit support
  • Telecommunication tower infrastructure

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • While polycarbonate offers excellent UV resistance, prolonged extreme UV exposure may necessitate additional protective coatings.
  • Avoid contact with strong solvents that may degrade polycarbonate.
