Choosing and Fitting Your U-Bolt
Measure the actual outside diameter of the pipe before selecting a U-bolt. Nominal pipe size may differ from the measured outside diameter. Check the leg centre spacing against the mounting holes and allow sufficient threaded length for the support, washers and nuts.
Fit a washer and nut to each leg, then tighten both nuts evenly to keep the pipe seated squarely. Avoid overtightening, particularly when securing thin-walled or plastic tubing.
