Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to thread stripping or deformation of the U-bolt or pipe.Use a calibrated torque wrench and adhere to manufacturer-recommended torque values, or tighten nuts evenly in stages to distribute load.
Using the wrong thread pitch or diameter for the application, compromising the connection's integrity.Verify the pipe's nominal size and ensure the U-bolt's thread specification (e.g., 1/2"-13) matches the intended mounting hardware.
