Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening nuts, potentially deforming the polycarbonate.Tighten nuts to a snug fit, avoiding excessive force. Torque wrenches can be used for precision if required by application load.
Using the wrong size U-bolt for the pipe diameter.Verify the pipe's nominal diameter and compare it to the U-bolt's Inside Width (A) to ensure a proper fit.

Common Applications

  • Chemical processing piping
  • Wastewater treatment systems
  • Marine and offshore installations
  • Electrical conduit support

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Not intended for structural load-bearing applications where significant mechanical stress is present.
  • Avoid prolonged exposure to temperatures exceeding the material's rated thermal limits.
