A proven choice for industrial professionals, this Titanium Grade 5 U-Bolt is engineered for demanding environments. Measuring 4.89" in inside width (A) and 2.90" in inside length (B), it is specifically designed for 3" nominal pipe. The robust 1/2"-13 threads ensure a secure and dependable connection. Titanium Grade 5 (Ti-6Al-4V) offers an unparalleled combination of high strength, low density, and exceptional resistance to corrosion, making it superior to stainless steel in highly aggressive media such as saltwater, chlorides, and acids.
This component strictly adheres to the tolerances, material specifications, and quality benchmarks set by the world's leading industrial manufacturers.
1. Position the U-bolt around the 3" pipe, ensuring it rests evenly on the pipe's exterior. 2. Place the included mounting plate or saddle beneath the pipe and align the U-bolt legs through the designated holes. 3. Secure the U-bolt by threading the nuts onto the legs, tightening them evenly and progressively until the desired clamping force is achieved. Avoid over-tightening.

| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using a U-bolt with insufficient inside width for the pipe's outer diameter. | Verify the pipe's actual outer diameter and select a U-bolt with an inside width that accommodates it comfortably with sufficient clearance for clamp operation. |
| Uneven tightening of the nuts, leading to uneven stress distribution and potential pipe deformation. | Tighten the nuts in an alternating, incremental pattern to ensure uniform pressure is applied around the pipe. |
