Description
Overview:
This high tensile steel U-bolt (MPN 763 242) is designed for secure clamping of brackets, sections and fittings on trailers, plant and general transport equipment. The U-bolt is zinc plated to provide corrosion resistance in road and site conditions, and is supplied complete with locking nuts and flat washers to create a reliable joint that resists loosening under vibration. The stated dimensions are 70 mm width (2.76 in) and 76 mm length (2.99 in), with 30 mm (1.18 in) of threaded section to allow for a range of clamping thicknesses. Typical uses include fixing body fittings, securing mudguard stays, attaching hardware to chassis rails or crossmembers, and general-purpose clamping where a U-shaped fastener is required. A guidance torque of 60 Nm is suggested, subject to the specific application, joint materials and lubrication. This is a straightforward, trade-grade fastening solution for workshop, fleet and onsite maintenance tasks across trailers, caravans, light commercials and plant transport.
