How to measure your round U-bolt

Four measurements are all we need to match or replace a round U-bolt. Take them from the bolt itself, or from the pipe or axle it needs to clamp.

  1. 01

    Inside Diameter

    The straight-line distance between the two inner legs of the bolt. This should match the outside diameter of the pipe, axle or spring pack being clamped.

  2. 02

    Inside Height

    Measured from the underside of the crown down to the inside diameter line. Sets how much clearance the bolt has over the mounting surface.

  3. 03

    Thread Length

    The length of threaded section on each leg, taken from the tip of the leg up to where the thread ends. Needs to clear your mounting plate plus nuts and washers.

  4. 04

    Thread Size

    The diameter of the threaded leg itself — e.g. M6 through M24 — which determines nut, washer and mounting-hole size.

Material & Finish

Choose the protection that suits the job

All round U-bolts are formed from certified high-tensile steel, then finished to suit the environment they'll be working in.

Standard

Zinc-Plated Steel

Cost-effective corrosion resistance for general trailer, ute and light-fleet work kept mostly under cover.

Recommended

Hot-Dip Galvanised

Heavier zinc coating for coastal, rural and full-time outdoor exposure — the standard choice for commercial fleets.

Marine-Grade

Stainless Steel

Maximum corrosion resistance for saltwater exposure, boat trailers and washdown-heavy environments.
