Zinc Plated U-Bolt Clamps with Backing Plates
DISLAB Precision supplies heavy-duty zinc plated U-bolt clamps for pipe fixing, conduit support, tube mounting, trailer hardware, construction brackets and industrial installation projects.
These carbon steel U-bolt clamps are supplied as complete assemblies with a U-bolt, flat backing plate, hex nuts and washers. The zinc plated finish improves corrosion resistance for general indoor, workshop and many outdoor environments, while the backing plate distributes clamping force more evenly across the pipe or mounting surface. Standard pipe outer diameters cover 16mm to 219mm, with M6, M8, M10 and M12 thread sizes available.
Complete U-Bolt Clamp Assembly & Load Distribution
Each U-bolt clamp set includes a precision-formed carbon steel U-bolt, flat backing plate, nuts and washers. The backing plate spreads tightening force across a wider contact area, helping reduce pipe denting, localized pressure marks, vibration loosening and uneven clamping.
This makes the assembly useful for pipe support, conduit mounting, frame fixing, trailer hardware, machinery guards and general structural connections where installers need a ready-to-use clamp kit instead of sourcing separate parts.

Real Customer Case
📦 Bulk Order for a European Plumbing Supply Company
A plumbing and HVAC supply company in the Netherlands ordered 30,000 pieces of zinc plated U-bolt clamps in M8 and M10 sizes for 20mm to 50mm pipe diameters. The clamps were used for residential and commercial pipe support installations.
DISLAB Precision supplied pre-packed clamp assemblies, each including the U-bolt, backing plate, nuts and washers. Before shipment, we checked thread fit, plating consistency, plate dimensions and packing labels. The complete assembly reduced installation time for contractors and supported a follow-up order for additional pipe clamp sizes and stainless steel variants.
Frequently Asked Questions
A: The backing plate distributes clamping force over a wider surface, helping prevent pipe dents and reducing concentrated pressure from the U-bolt legs.
A: Measure the outside diameter of the pipe or tube, then confirm the thread size, leg length, backing plate size and installation thickness. If you are unsure, send your pipe diameter and application details for selection support.
A: These clamps are mainly used for mechanical support and pipe positioning. For high-pressure fluid systems, use them together with the correct pipe support design and pressure-rated fittings.
A: Zinc plating provides good general corrosion resistance. For coastal, chemical or highly corrosive environments, 304 or 316 stainless steel U-bolt clamps are usually a better choice.
A: Yes. We can support custom diameters, leg lengths, thread sizes, backing plate dimensions, materials, coatings, packing and OEM requirements.
At DISLAB Precision, we support global buyers with U-bolt clamps, pipe clamps, fasteners, CNC hardware and custom industrial components. We can help confirm dimensions, material, surface finish, backing plate design, packing and bulk order requirements. Every order is checked for thread quality, dimensions, surface finish and assembly completeness before delivery.
