100mm U-bolt Clamp Kit

100mm U-bolt Clamp Kit with plates is used to clamp equipment to boat trailers or similar trailers.

U-bolts are measured from the leg’s inside to the thread’s tip. The width of the u-bolt is always measured from the inside.

Available Lengths are

  • 75mm
  • 100mm
  • 125mm
  • 150mm
  • 200mm

Tip: Tightening with a rattle gun can cause uneven tension on the clamp.

Check all mild steel U-bolts for tightness after the first 100 kilometres of travel. Mild steel stretches upon initial tightening, so it is best to check.

  1. The inside measurement is 100mm.
  2. Measure theInsidee of the top to the tip of the thread to obtain the desired thread length.

Frequently Asked Questions: 100mm Square U-Bolt Clamp Kit

The Do’s

  • Do measure your material: Verify your square tube, drawbar, or chassis rail is exactly 100mm wide before installation.
  • Do check thread clearance: Ensure you have enough protruding thread length to accommodate your bracket thickness, washers, and nuts.
  • Do tighten evenly: Alternate between the two sides of the U-bolt while tightening to ensure even clamping pressure.
  • Do use a torque wrench: Tighten the nuts to the recommended torque specification for your bolt grade to avoid stripping threads.
  • Do apply anti-seize: Use a thread lubricant (especially on stainless steel variants) to prevent thread galling or seizing.
  • Do inspect regularly: Check the tightness of the nuts after your first trip, particularly when used on boat trailers or heavy-duty racks.

The Don’ts

  • Don’t use on round bars: Never use a square U-bolt on round tubing, as it will concentrate stress and crush the pipe.
  • Don’t over-tighten: Avoid using high-powered impact wrenches, which can bend the cross-plate or stretch the U-bolt threads.
  • Don’t reuse deformed bolts: Never reinstall a U-bolt that has been bent, stressed, or shows visible thread damage.
  • Don’t mix metal types: Avoid pairing raw steel plates with galvanized or stainless bolts to prevent galvanic corrosion.
  • Don’t modify the bolt: Do not heat, bend, or drill into the U-bolt, as this drastically reduces its structural load rating.
