Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Overtightening the U-bolt nuts, which can deform the pipe or damage the threads.Use a calibrated torque wrench to tighten nuts to the manufacturer's recommended specification, or consult an engineering drawing for torque values.
Incorrect U-bolt size selection, leading to a loose or overly compressed fit.Verify pipe nominal size and confirm U-bolt dimensions (Inside Width and Length) against pipe outer diameter and required clearance.

Common Applications
