Metallics UB022 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What pipe size does the Metallics UB022 u-bolt fit?
The UB022 is sized for 2 inch pipe. Its u-bolt dimensions are 3/8-16 thread by 3-1/8 by 2-1/2, so the 2-1/2 inch inside opening clears 2 inch pipe and its outside diameter. If you are hanging a different line size, you need a different u-bolt in the UB series rather than this one.
2) Does the Metallics UB022 u-bolt meet Buy American and ARRA requirements for a public job?
The UB022 is flagged compliant for both Buy American and ARRA. Country of origin is listed as multiple, so if your spec requires a single named origin on the submittal, that is the detail to pin down with your order.
3) What thread do the nuts on the Metallics UB022 u-bolt take, and how many come with it?
Both legs are 3/8-16 right hand thread, 16 threads per inch to ANSI/ASME B1.1, and two hex nuts ship with each u-bolt. If you want to add washers or use your own nuts, any standard 3/8-16 UNC hardware threads on.
4) Is the Metallics UB022 u-bolt OK outdoors or in a damp mechanical room?
It's zinc plated steel, which handles indoor and sheltered damp conditions. Zinc plating is not a marine or continuously wet finish, so for roof-exposed, coastal, or chemically aggressive locations step up to stainless or hot dip galvanized hardware instead.
5) What grade of steel is the Metallics UB022 u-bolt, and what does that mean for load?
The u-bolt is ASTM A307 low carbon steel with Grade A nuts per ASTM A563. A307 is general purpose, non-structural bolting, which is why these are specified for pipe, conduit, and duct support rather than as structural fasteners. Dimensions follow ASME B18.2.2.
6) Do I need anything else besides the Metallics UB022 to mount pipe to strut or an angle?
The two hex nuts are included, so the u-bolt and nuts are complete as a fastener. What is not included is whatever it anchors to: strut, backing plate, angle iron, or a drilled support, plus washers if your detail calls for them. Drill or slot spacing has to match the 2-1/2 inch opening between the legs.
7) Can I use the Metallics UB022 u-bolt for HVAC and plumbing, or is it electrical only?
It's catalogued on the electrical side but the stated field application covers electrical, plumbing, heating, and air conditioning work. Same part for conduit racks, pipe hangers, and duct or unit supports.
8) How many Metallics UB022 u-bolts come in a bag and what is the minimum order?
They're bagged 10 to a bag, with a minimum order of 10 each. That bag weighs 1964 g, so figure roughly 196 g per u-bolt and nut set when you're estimating what a strut rack adds overhead.
