Strut U-Bolt Beam Clamp T-316 Stainless Steel for 13/16" through 1-5/8" Strut

U-bolt pipe support — wraps the pipe, bolts to the structure. This Stainless Steel U-bolt clamps around the pipe and fastens through a plate, beam flange, or strut channel — providing secure lateral and vertical pipe support on horizontal and riser runs.

• Wraps pipe with two-point bolt-down support
• Suitable for horizontal pipe runs and vertical risers
• Stainless steel for corrosion resistance in wet and outdoor environments
• Standard thread, compatible with hex nuts and washers

Overview

Strut U-Bolt Beam Clamp T-316 Stainless Steel for 13/16" through 1-5/8" Strut is a U-bolt pipe support that clamps around the pipe and fastens through a plate, structural member, or strut channel. U-bolts provide secure lateral restraint and vertical support for pipe runs in mechanical, plumbing, and HVAC applications. Stainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet, outdoor, and chemical service environments.

Common Uses

• Supporting horizontal pipe runs on beam flanges and plates
• Securing pipe to structural steel in mechanical rooms
• Pipe support on strut channel systems
• Plumbing, HVAC, and process piping support
• Outdoor and underground piping support

Key Features

• U-bolt wraps pipe for positive 360° clamping
• Standard thread accepts hex nuts and plate washers
• Stainless steel — corrosion resistant for wet and outdoor service
• MSS SP-69 and SP-58 compliant pipe support

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a U-bolt used for in pipe support?

U-bolts clamp around a pipe and fasten to a structural plate or beam, providing vertical and lateral support for horizontal and riser pipe runs.

Why use copper-plated U-bolts on copper pipe?

Direct steel-to-copper contact causes galvanic corrosion that degrades the pipe over time. Copper-plated U-bolts eliminate galvanic contact at the support point.

What size U-bolt do I need?

U-bolt size is based on pipe outside diameter (OD). Always match the U-bolt pipe size to the actual OD of the pipe you are supporting — pipe OD varies by material and schedule.

Can U-bolts be used on vertical pipe risers?

Yes. U-bolts are commonly used on vertical risers to provide lateral restraint and prevent pipe movement.
