Installation Procedure

1. Position the U-bolt around the 2" pipe, ensuring it straddles the pipe evenly. 2. Place the accompanying flat or saddle washer (if provided) against the pipe surface and thread the nuts onto the U-bolt legs. 3. Tighten the nuts incrementally and evenly on both sides, applying the recommended torque for the 1/2"-13 thread size, to achieve a secure but not over-compressed fit.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening the nuts, which can lead to excessive stress on the polycarbonate material.Use a torque wrench and adhere to the manufacturer's specified torque values for 1/2"-13 fasteners to avoid material deformation or failure.
Using the wrong size U-bolt for the pipe diameter, leading to loose support or potential damage.Always verify the nominal pipe size and confirm that the U-bolt's inside dimensions (Width A and Length B) are appropriate for the specific pipe being supported.

Common Applications

  • Chemical processing plants
  • Wastewater treatment facilities
  • Marine and offshore platforms
  • Food and beverage production

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Ensure compatibility with specific chemical environments before use, as extreme concentrations or unusual substances may affect material integrity.
