Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening the U-bolt, potentially deforming the pipe or damaging the polycarbonate.Use a torque wrench and adhere to the manufacturer's recommended torque values for the specific pipe and application.
Selecting the wrong U-bolt size, leading to a loose or improperly secured pipe.Always verify the nominal pipe size (NPS) and measure the actual outer diameter of the pipe to ensure a proper fit with the U-bolt's internal dimensions.

Common Applications

  • Chemical processing plants
  • Wastewater treatment facilities
  • Electrical conduit support

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Ensure compatibility with specific chemical exposure and temperature ranges.
  • Do not exceed the stated load capacity of the U-bolt.
