Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening nuts, which can strip threads or deform the pipe.Use a torque wrench to adhere to recommended torque specifications for the thread size and material.
Using standard steel nuts and washers, leading to galvanic corrosion with titanium.Always use compatible titanium or high-grade stainless steel fasteners to prevent galvanic corrosion.

Common Applications

  • Marine and offshore piping systems
  • Chemical processing equipment
  • Aerospace structural support

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Ensure compatibility of all mating hardware (nuts, washers) with Titanium Grade 5 to prevent galvanic corrosion.
  • Verify that the U-bolt's dimensions are appropriate for the specific pipe outside diameter and any insulation being used.
