U-Bolts

What are U-bolt nuts made of?

These nuts are made of steel / stainless steel / aluminium / polyurethane rubber, ensuring high impact and abrasion resistance.

What is the significance of nonconductive U-bolts?

These fibreglass-reinforced polyurethane U-bolts do not conduct electricity and prevent metal-to-metal corrosion. These U-bolts are chemical, UV and abrasion resistant.

What accessories are compatible with these U-bolts?

Standoff brackets can be used with U-bolts for conveying pipes, tubes and cable raceways at a distance from walls, floors and ceilings. They offer extra clearance that allows access for maintenance as well as adding & removing lines.

How do we measure the size of a U-bolt?

The length of these fasteners is measured from the bolt end to the inside of the bends. The width of these U-bolts is measured between the legs.

What mounting options do these U-bolts offer?

These U-bolts offer threaded / screw mounting for easy and secure installation.

What types of nuts can be used with U-bolts?

U-bolts are compatible with hex nuts, nylon-insert lock nuts and serrated flange lock nuts.

How to install U-bolts?

• Remove both nuts from all sides of the U-bolt.
• Place the U-bolt around the pipe to be attached and thread the ends of the bolt through the holes in the supporting beam or structure.
• Thread all the nuts on each of the bolt's outer ends.
• Tighten the nuts that are closest to the support beam manually.
• Finally, tighten the outer nuts on ends of the U-bolt with a wrench or an influence tool.

What safety precautions should be taken while using U-bolts?

• Before using, check for damages that may be caused due to the high pressure exerted while pulling a load with a truck.
• Tighten the nuts if loosen to prevent slipping.
• Replace the U-bolt if any crack is found.
• If the U-bolt is rusted, get a new one.
