U-Bolt

Description

A U-bolt is a versatile fastener shaped like the letter "U," featuring threaded ends on both arms. Designed for securing or clamping pipes, rods, or other cylindrical objects, U-bolts are widely used in construction, automotive, plumbing, and industrial applications. Their curved design allows them to provide a firm grip around objects, making them ideal for mounting, bracing, or suspending components.

U-bolts are made from durable materials like stainless steel, carbon steel, or alloy steel, and are often coated for corrosion resistance, enabling them to perform effectively in challenging environments.
