Detailed Engineering Specifications

Engineered for reliability and performance, this polycarbonate U-bolt is designed for 4-inch nominal pipe sizes, offering an inside width of 2.01 inches and an inside length of 7.00 inches. The 1/2"-13 thread size ensures robust fastening capabilities. Polycarbonate's inherent properties deliver superior resistance to a wide range of chemicals, extreme temperatures (-40°F to 250°F), and UV degradation, making it ideal for demanding industrial and marine environments where metal corrosion is a concern. Its non-conductive nature also provides valuable electrical insulation benefits.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening the nuts, which can stress and potentially fracture the polycarbonate material.Use a torque wrench and adhere to the specified torque values for polycarbonate fasteners. If a torque wrench is unavailable, tighten until snug and then an additional quarter turn.
Using the U-bolt for applications exceeding its temperature or chemical resistance limits.Verify the operating environment's temperature and chemical exposure against the polycarbonate material's specifications before installation.

Common Applications

  • Chemical processing plants
  • Wastewater treatment facilities
  • Marine and offshore installations
  • Electrical conduit support

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Do not exceed the specified temperature range of -40°F to 250°F.
  • Ensure compatibility with specific chemicals in the operating environment before use.
