U Bolt and V Bolt
About The Product
U Bolts and V Bolts are mechanical fasteners used primarily for clamping or anchoring cylindrical objects such as pipes, tubes, and poles. Shaped like the letters “U” and “V” respectively, they come with threaded arms that allow secure fastening using nuts and washers. They are commonly used in electrical, mechanical, construction, automotive, and marine industries.
featueres
usage
1. Clamping: Used to clamp pipes or tubing to a supporting surface.
2. Support: Provide structural support to piping systems.
3. Securing: Fasten poles, conduit, cables, or rods.
4. Electrical: Commonly used to fix earthing rods, electrical conduits or poles.

INSTALLATION
➥Place the U or V bolt around the pipe, pole or object.
➥ Insert the threaded ends through holes on a bracket or support plate.
➥Place washers and nuts on both ends.
➥ Tighten evenly using a torque wrench to avoid misalignment or overtightening.
➥ Check for vibration loosening if in a dynamic system.
