Installation Procedure

1. Position the U-bolt around the 3" pipe, ensuring the pipe rests evenly within the curve. 2. Thread the provided nuts onto the U-bolt legs, hand-tightening initially. 3. Using appropriate torque wrenches, tighten the nuts to the manufacturer's recommended torque specification for 1/2"-13 bolts, ensuring even tension on both sides.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening the U-bolt, which can deform the pipe or the U-bolt itself.Always use a calibrated torque wrench and adhere to recommended torque values for the fastener size and material grade.
Using the wrong size U-bolt for the pipe diameter, leading to poor support or damage.Verify the pipe's nominal size and ensure the U-bolt's inside dimensions are appropriate for a secure fit.

Common Applications

  • Marine and Offshore Structures
  • Chemical Processing Plants
