⚡ At a Glance
- • Holding Strength: Carbon steel construction clamps 16mm tubing securely, nylon lock nuts resist loosening under vibration
- • Best for: Trailer assemblies, plumbing, solar panel mounting, HVAC, agricultural machinery and automotive exhaust work
- • Not ideal for: Applications using pipes larger than 16mm or requiring bespoke sized fasteners
U-shaped carbon steel bolts with M6 threads and 36mm height clamp 16mm objects. Kits include multiple nylon lock nuts, washers and plates to reduce installation time and resist loosening.
Vibration-resistant clamping - thanks to nylon insert lock nuts
Nylon insert lock nuts use an elastic nylon collar to create continuous friction against the M6 threads, reducing rotational movement. Elastic deformation maintains grip under repeated vibration.
Keeps fittings tight in vibration-prone environments, cutting down on retightening and maintenance visits.
Faster on-site installation - with a complete hardware kit
Each set ships with 4 U-bolts, 16 nylon lock nuts, 8 washers and 4 plates, plus 8 extra nylon lock nuts for re-tightening. Supplying matching components removes the need to source parts separately.
Saves time and hassle on jobs, enabling quicker clamping and fewer trips to suppliers.
Accurate fit for standard tubing - with M6 thread and 16mm fit
U-shaped design has threads at both ends, M6 thread size, a fit object diameter of 16mm and a height of 36mm. Dimensions match typical small-diameter pipe and tube applications.
Ensures a snug clamp on 16mm pipes and similar profiles, delivering a secure mechanical connection.
