A u-bolt is a curved bolt that features threads on each end. U-Bolts act as the simplest but also the most widely used pipe guiding restraint. Custom sizes are readily available upon request including variable: rod thickness, width, length, and thread length.
Standard u-bolts are bent to form a U that fits around a pipe or tube. It is threaded on both ends to allow attachment to a beam or structure.
ProTek u-bolts restrain the pipe while shielding it from metal-to-metal contact and rough abrasion from pipe movement.
