Metallics UBS014 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the Metallics UBS014 U-bolt stainless, and can it go outdoors or in a wet location?
It is 18-8 stainless steel, bolt and both nuts, which is the standard austenitic grade used for damp, washdown, and exterior runs where plated carbon steel would rust. Nut material is held to ASTM F594, the spec for stainless steel nuts.
2) Do the nuts come with this U-bolt or do I have to buy them separately?
Two hex nuts ship with each U-bolt, so nothing else is needed to make the connection other than whatever you are bolting through (strut, plate, or channel). Nothing in the pack covers washers.
3) How many U-bolts are in a bag of Metallics UBS014?
They are bagged 10 to a pack, and 10 each is the order minimum, so you buy in full bags rather than singles. Useful to know when you are pricing out a run with a fixed support spacing.
4) Will a standard 5/16-18 nut or threaded accessory fit this U-bolt?
Yes. The threads are right hand, 18 threads per inch, cut to ANSI/ASME B1.1, which is the Unified inch screw thread standard, so any off-the-shelf 5/16-18 stainless nut, washer, or coupling threads on. The hex nuts supplied measure 0.489 to 0.500 inch across the flats with a height of 0.258 to 0.273 inch, dimensioned to ASME B18.2.2.
5) Does this U-bolt qualify for a Buy American or ARRA funded job?
The UBS014 is flagged compliant for both Buy American and ARRA. Country of origin is listed as multiple, so if your specifier needs a single documented origin for a particular lot, that is worth confirming at the time of order.
6) Is a U-bolt like this the right choice for hanging conduit, or should I use a conduit clamp or strap?
A U-bolt is what you use when you need to capture a pipe or conduit against a flat surface or strut and draw it down tight from both sides, with the double-nut connection carrying the load. A one-hole strap or snap-in clamp is faster for light conduit against a wall but does not clamp fully around the run. Metallics lists this UBS014 for electrical, plumbing, heating, and air conditioning work, which is exactly that support-and-restraint role.
7) I need a different size U-bolt than 5/16-18 x 2 inch. Does the Metallics UBS series cover other sizes?
The UBS line runs other sizes and pack quantities beyond the UBS014 configuration, available by request. Give the inside width you need across the bend and the leg length, plus the thread diameter, and that is enough to pull the right UBS number.
8) What does a bag of 10 Metallics UBS014 U-bolts weigh for shipping or a materials list?
A bag of 10 weighs 649 g. The packed bag runs 6 in long, 3 in high, and 152.4 mm wide.
