Basic Product Structure
This resin pipe clamp with mount features an integrated design made up of the following components.
• Clamp and band section that holds the pipe in place.
• Mount section for attaching or suspending equipment.
The mount section is compatible with a variety of screw standards depending on your application, making it suitable for a wide range of uses from pipe support to equipment securing.
Correct Basic Installation Procedures
1. Measure the outer diameter of your target object and select a product with the appropriate matching size.
2. Secure the target object with the clamp and attach the mount.
3. Insert flat washers on both outer sides, then hand-tighten the included bolts and nuts.
4. Confirm there is no wobble, then connect your target equipment or bolts from the top of the mount.
*Always insert flat washers on both outer sides for stable use.
*Over-tightening with tools such as a wrench is not recommended.
Important Notes on Mount Screw Standards
It is compatible with the following screw standards depending on your use case.
All use coarse thread specifications.
*It is not compatible with fine thread screws.
W3/8 (Whitworth Thread)
Primarily used for construction and plumbing applications to support and secure horizontal pipes suspended from ceilings.
3/8-16UNC (Unified Thread)
Used for attaching accessories such as cameras and photography equipment.
M10 (Metric Thread)
Used for attaching to machinery and industrial equipment.
Important Notes on 3/8 Threads
W3/8 (Whitworth Thread) and 3/8-16UNC (Unified Thread) are different standards. They have similar appearances and can sometimes be installed without force, but they are not officially compatible with one another.
Always verify the official screw standard of the equipment you are attaching beforehand.
Important Notes on Effective Screw Length
Due to the internal structure of the mount section, there is an approximate 4mm "untapped space". If the connecting bolt is too short, it will lack sufficient strength; if it is too long, it will bottom out and cause the mount to lift. Select a bolt of the appropriate length, or adjust as needed using washers or similar components.
Recommended Bolt Lengths
Bolts with a thread length of 6mm or less will not reach the threaded sections, while bolts 12mm or longer will have excess thread protruding. Please use bolts with a length of 7 to 11mm.
Summary
To use the mounted type safely, verifying compatibility with the correct screw standard is essential. Select the proper size and standard, and use the product without applying excessive force.
