Installation Procedure

1. Ensure the pipe is clean and free of debris. Position the U-bolt around the pipe, aligning the legs with the mounting surface. 2. Place the supplied washers and nuts onto the threaded legs. Hand-tighten each nut. 3. Using a calibrated torque wrench, tighten the nuts incrementally and alternately to the recommended torque specification, ensuring even clamping force on both sides.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening the nuts, which can lead to thread stripping or deformation of the U-bolt.Always use a calibrated torque wrench and adhere to the specified torque values for the fastener size and material grade.
Using the wrong size U-bolt for the pipe, resulting in an insecure fit or potential damage to the pipe.Verify the nominal pipe size and U-bolt dimensions (inside width and length) before installation to ensure proper fit.

Common Applications

  • Offshore oil and gas platforms
  • Marine vessel piping systems
  • Chemical processing plants
  • Desalination plants

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Always use the correct size U-bolt and mounting hardware for the specific application.
  • Ensure all threads are clean and free of debris before installation to prevent galling or cross-threading, especially with titanium fasteners.
