Stainless Steel U-Bolt For Pipe Fitting

Product Intrdouction

U-bolts, also known as riding bolts, are "U"-shaped fasteners with threads on both ends that can be used with nuts. It is mainly used to firmly fix or hang tubular or rod-shaped objects (such as pipes, steel pipes, cables, etc.) on supporting structures. Its unique U-shaped design enables encircling installation, which not only ensures reliable connection, but also effectively protects the surface of the fixed object and prevents loosening. Products are made of carbon steel, stainless steel and other materials, often with surface treatments such as galvanizing, and have excellent corrosion resistance and load-bearing properties. Because of its convenient installation and stable structure, it is widely used in pipeline engineering, automobile suspension, building installation, power facilities and other fields. It is an indispensable connector in infrastructure construction.

 

Product Features

1. Surrounding fixation, strong and reliable: The unique U-shaped structure can tightly wrap the fixed object, provide uniform force distribution, strong resistance to vibration and impact, and the connection is very stable.

2. Easy to install and flexible to use: The structure is simple, just fasten the bolt to the object and tighten the nuts at both ends. It is very convenient to install and disassemble, and has strong adaptability.

3. Protect the surface of the object: Compared with direct drilling and fixing, U-bolts can reduce damage to the body of the fixed object such as pipes and cables. The often equipped plastic sheath can further prevent scratches and wear.

4. Strong load-bearing capacity: mostly made of high-strength steel, which can withstand large radial pressure and tensile stress, and is suitable for heavy-load fastening occasions.

5. Corrosion resistance and long life: It has good corrosion resistance through surface treatment methods such as hot-dip galvanizing, chrome plating or stainless steel, and can adapt to outdoor and harsh environments.

6. Wide application and good versatility: Various specifications and models can meet the fixing needs of different pipe diameters and rods. It is a basic universal part in the fields of pipelines, automobiles, construction, electricity, etc.

 

Product application

1. Piping system fixation: This is the most classic application. It is used to firmly fix various pipes (such as water pipes, gas pipes, fire pipes, industrial pipelines) on walls, brackets or steel structures to prevent pipe displacement and vibration.

2. Automobiles and transportation: Leaf springs (leaf springs) are mainly used to secure vehicles and connect axles and suspension systems. They are key safety components in chassis suspensions of trucks, trailers, buses, etc. Also used to fix exhaust pipes, etc.

3. Construction and steel structures: used to fasten and install pipes, air ducts, cable trays and other facilities in buildings, and to connect or fix round steel, pipes and other components to beams and columns in steel structures.

4. Electric power and communication engineering: It is widely used to fix cross arms, insulators and other hardware on telegraph poles to cement poles or wooden poles. It is also a commonly used fastener in cable bridges and pole hoisting.

5. Mechanical equipment and shipbuilding: used to fix hydraulic pipelines, lubrication pipelines, etc. in various mechanical equipment. On ships, it is used to tie and secure railings, pipes and small equipment.

 

FAQ

Q: How to choose the appropriate U-bolt size?

A: Three key dimensions need to be confirmed: inner width (A): the straight-line distance of the U-shaped opening, which determines how thick the object can be accommodated. Stud center distance (B): the center distance of the threaded holes at both ends, which needs to match the mounting hole position. Diameter (D): The rod diameter of the stud directly affects the strength and load capacity of the product. Please accurately measure and select according to the outer diameter of the object to be fixed and the hole spacing of the mounting platform.

 

Q: How much weight or tension can the U-bolt bear?

A: The load-bearing capacity depends on the material, diameter, specification and installation method of the bolt. For specific load-bearing parameters, please refer to the performance grade table or mechanical property test report provided by the manufacturer. Overload use is strictly prohibited.

 

Q: Which U-bolt should be used in corrosive environments (such as the seaside)?

A: It is recommended to use U-shaped bolts made of stainless steel 316 because it contains molybdenum and its chloride corrosion resistance is much better than 304 stainless steel and galvanized parts, making it an ideal choice for marine environments.

 

Q: What matters need to be paid attention to during installation?

A: It is prohibited to knock or bend bolts to "match holes". Make sure the nuts are tightened to the specified torque and avoid being too tight or too loose. Check whether the bolts and fixtures fit well and whether the force is applied evenly.
