Industrial Applications
U Bolts are widely used in:
- Electrical panels and assemblies: Fasten and secure conduit pipes or cables in electrical installations.
- Automotive industry: Hold leaf springs and exhaust systems firmly in position.
- Marine industry: Secure ropes, rigging, and pipeline supports in corrosive environments.
- Construction and civil engineering: Used in scaffolding, pipeline supports, and structural frameworks.
- Oil, gas, and power plants: Provide pipe support and stability in high-pressure environments.
Product Description
U Bolts are bent fasteners primarily used to secure cylindrical objects to a base. Their U-shaped design with threaded ends allows them to be tightened in place using nuts and washers, ensuring firm clamping force. Manufactured in standard and custom sizes, U Bolts are suitable for both light-duty and heavy-duty applications. With availability in multiple materials and surface coatings, they withstand diverse working environments, including marine, automotive, and industrial applications where strength and corrosion resistance are critical.
