What is the diameter of the bolt thread?

The bolt has a thickness/diameter (D measurement) of 10mm.

Does this bolt come with nuts?

Yes, each U-bolt is supplied with two matching hex nuts.

Can this be used in saltwater?

Yes, the product is designed for marine applications, though regular rinsing is recommended to prolong service life.

What is the 'A' measurement referring to?

The 'A' measurement of 50mm refers to the width between the inside of the bolt legs.

Can I use this for plumbing applications?

Troubleshooting

Nut does not thread smoothly

Ensure threads are free from debris and check that the bolt has not been cross-threaded during initial installation.

Vibration causing nuts to loosen

Consider using a thread-locking compound or adding spring washers to maintain tension on the assembly.

Bolt does not fit around the pipe

Verify the nominal pipe bore of your material is exactly 40mm, as external pipe diameters can vary by wall thickness.
