Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is a U-bolt and how is it used?
A: A U-bolt is a U-shaped fastener with threaded ends used to clamp around a pipe, tube, or rail. Two nuts are tightened on the threaded legs to secure the U-bolt around the pipe.
Q: What does the 3 in. dimension on this U-bolt mean?
A: The 3 in. dimension refers to the nominal inside width of the U-bolt, which corresponds to the outside diameter of the pipe or rail it is designed to clamp around.
Q: What is the application of the 2400-170 U-bolt on a gate operator?
A: This U-bolt is used in Linear and OSCO gate operator installations to mount the operator to a 3 in. pipe or square tube post or rail structure.
Q: Is there a newer version of the 2400-170?
A: The 2400-170 has a UPS-variant counterpart, 2400-170-UPS, which represents an updated or upgraded specification of this same U-bolt. The -UPS version may feature improved material or dimensional changes.
Q: How tight should I torque the U-bolt during installation?
A: U-bolts should be tightened to the torque specification listed in the Linear/OSCO installation manual for your specific operator model. Over-tightening can deform the pipe or the U-bolt threads.
