Installation Procedure

1. Position the U-bolt around the 3" pipe, ensuring it rests evenly on the outer diameter. 2. Place the pipe and U-bolt assembly against the mounting surface or saddle. 3. Thread the nuts onto the U-bolt legs, tightening them evenly and progressively to the specified torque to achieve firm contact without over-stressing the pipe or mounting structure.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening the nuts, leading to pipe deformation or premature component fatigue.Use a calibrated torque wrench and adhere to the recommended torque values for the specific pipe material and mounting application.
Using standard steel nuts and washers, which can lead to galvanic corrosion with the titanium.Always use compatible titanium or high-grade stainless steel nuts and washers to maintain the corrosion resistance integrity of the assembly.

Common Applications

  • Marine and offshore structural support
  • Chemical processing pipelines
  • Aerospace and defense systems
  • High-temperature or corrosive fluid handling

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Ensure compatibility of all mating hardware (nuts, washers) to prevent galvanic corrosion.
  • Verify that the U-bolt's dimensions are appropriate for the specific pipe's outer diameter and any required insulation or jacketing.
