Value Collection -38775-1 U-bolt 2-1/2 Inch Pipe Steel 2 Pack

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION -38775-1 is a steel zinc-plated U-bolt designed to secure 2-1/2 inch pipe in mechanical, plumbing, and HVAC piping installations. The zinc plating provides corrosion resistance in typical indoor and light-duty exposed environments. This U-bolt is manufactured to inch-measurement standards and is sold in a pack of two. It is a standard fastening component used by plumbers, pipefitters, HVAC technicians, and mechanical contractors when anchoring pipe runs to structural supports, unistrut, or framing members. The part is sized specifically for 2-1/2 inch nominal pipe and is suitable for use wherever a code-compliant pipe restraint or hanger anchor point is required.

This U-bolt is appropriate for residential and light commercial piping applications involving 2-1/2 inch nominal pipe. Typical uses include securing copper, steel, or PVC pipe runs to overhead structure, wall framing, or mechanical support channels. It is commonly installed during rough-in or retrofit work on hydronic heating systems, domestic water supply lines, refrigerant suction or liquid line supports, and general mechanical piping. Each package contains two U-bolts, making it practical for multiple anchor points in a single service call or installation run.

Key Features

• Fits 2-1/2 inch nominal pipe for precise, secure clamping
• Steel construction with zinc-plated finish for corrosion resistance
• Inch-measurement standard for compatibility with standard pipe fittings and hardware
• Sold as a 2-pack to cover multiple anchor points per package
• Suitable for a wide range of piping materials in mechanical and plumbing systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-fit U-bolt for 2-1/2 inch nominal pipe applications in mechanical, plumbing, and HVAC piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, or HVAC technicians. Shut off system pressure and isolate the pipe run before positioning supports. Follow applicable local mechanical codes and IFGC or IPC guidelines for pipe support spacing and fastener requirements. Do not overtighten the U-bolt nuts, as this can deform the pipe wall, particularly on copper or PVC pipe.
