The SecureFix Direct U Bolt is designed for professionals and DIY enthusiasts requiring a heavy-duty mounting solution for pipes and tubes in marine or industrial environments. Its primary benefit is the combination of high-strength structural integrity and a zinc-plated finish that resists environmental degradation, though users should note that zinc plating may eventually require replacement in highly corrosive, direct-seawater-submerged conditions.

Yes, the zinc-plated finish provides necessary protection against outdoor weather conditions.
The bolt diameter is 12mm.
Yes, each U Bolt includes two hex nuts as standard.
Yes, it is designed for a nominal pipe bore of 100mm.
The bolt length is 115mm. Ensure your mounting surface thickness allows for this length.
While zinc plating offers good protection, it is not designed for permanent submersion in saltwater; frequent inspection is recommended.
Check the threads for debris or paint residue. Clean the threads with a wire brush to ensure a smooth fit.
Consider using a secondary locking washer or a thread-locking compound designed for metal-on-metal applications.
Installation requires a wrench sized for the hex nuts to ensure a snug fit without over-torquing, which could potentially strip the threads. Ensure that the pipe diameter matches the 100mm nominal bore for optimal clearance. To maintain the integrity of the zinc coating, avoid using abrasive cleaning tools like steel wool. If the bolt is used in a high-moisture environment, periodically check the hex nuts for signs of loosening due to thermal expansion or mechanical vibration. Applying a light layer of marine-grade grease to the threads can further assist in preventing oxidation over long periods.
